Following the varsity's example, the freshman track team overpowered an 18-man B.U. squad last night, 90-14, at Briggs Cage.
The freshmen had three double winners and swept the high jump, the broad jump, the hurdles, and the two-mile while winning every event.
High jumper and pole vaulter Ed Baskauskas provided the most excitement in the rout with a 6'4" high jump. Varsity high jumper Jim Coleman's winning jump was only 6'2".
Jake Driscoll won both the shot put and the 35-pound weight with throws of 52' 4 3/4" and 52' 2 1/2". Steve Thomas also captured two events, winning the 40-yard high hurdles in a time of 5.5 seconds and the broad jump with a leap of 20'5".
Bob Seals, freshman cross country star, won the 1000 with a good time while Howie Wilson equalled the winning varsity time in the 40-yard dash with his 4.7 seconds mark.
Cross country runners Rick Jurgens and Mike Koerner also won their events as Jurgens placed first in the mile and Koerner first in the two-mile.
