Feb 1980

 45 years ago (Feb. 1980): I was winding down my sophomore year of indoor track. Only two races this month, our final dual meet against Chelmsford (points towards earning a letter were DOUBLED in this meet since CHS were our archrivals) and the Merrimack valley conference League meet. I finished third in the mile (4:59) against Chelmsford with my future U-Lowell teammate Tom Chamberas running wire to wire with John Dangora both timed in 4:48 with John taking the win. My other race was a 5th place 10:28 2-mile in the league meet which was won by another future U-Lowell teammate Scott Rafferty.  I earned my first varsity letter, and our team finished undefeated in the Merrimack Valley Conference.
