Frederick eyes 1968 Olympic trials after strong nationals meet
Frederick’s organizers began pursuing the 1968 women's and men's Olympic trials less than three hours after pole vaulter Bob Seagren tied his world record. Janet Bellew backed the idea, while officials praised the Frederick nationals as the best yet and noted housing as the main hurdle. Frederick hopes the successful meet helps win the bid, with a two year wait ahead.
