Cross County at Gallia Academy 1952

Post by BluFan »

From the Gallipolis Daily Tribune, November 1, 1952. Marietta Team Canels Cross County Meet

A cross county meet with Marietta High which was scheduled for the Gallia Academy course Wednesday was postponed. Marietta's coach called and stated that it was impossible for them to make the trip. It is possible that it will be run off at some future date.

Coach Frank Knutsen will accompany his son, Bryon to Columbus, where the Gallia Acadmey runner will compete in the state cross county finals. The race will be run over the Ohio State course and will attract runners from all parts of the state. Bryon Knutsen was the only Gallipolis runner who qualified for the state meet.

That was my senior year. Mr. Knutsen was a local high school teacher that year.
