Decathlon Pentathlon sidelights at Elyria track meet
Runners David March banks of North Ridgeville and Joe Gaviak of Elyria toughed out a mile under punishing hamstring strain to complete all 10 events. Curt Helm considered not entering until his sister Barbara convinced him to join on the final day. Joanne Hinkofer set a school 880 mark in the Pentathlon while coach Tom Below valued her versatility. Hinkofer clocked 5 14.5 as she battled fatigue, backed by Elyria teammates and a strong basketball season behind her. Tammy Porter and Betty Halliburton sat out the Pentathlon day two due to hamstring troubles. Terri Porter posted high scores on day one.
