Winds reshape Big Four track meet in Iowa City
In Iowa City the Big School meet became a four-team event as Drake skipped the competition. Winds of 25 to 35 mph hindered results, with Iowa State winning five field events and overall by 15 over Iowa. UNI scored 54. Iowa had three top-four finishes, including Curt Brock’s pole vault win. Disqualifications marred sprint and hurdles events.
