Also, it was this meet that marked the first time this season that Brian Tolan had been beaten by a fellow Maine West runner. Jeff Brydges, with an outstanding performance came in three places ahead of Tolan.
When asked how the conference championship had been won, Varsity Coach Bill Barringer replied. "Two weeks ago both Maine South and Maine East were better than we were and beat us. The conference championship is based on both the dual meet record and the conference meet itself. We went into the conference meet in a bad situation; even if we won it, South would have to beat East for us to be champions. We won and South did beat East."
With their recent victory at the district competition, the Warriors will, now advance to the sectionals which will be held tomorrow at Lake Forest High School west campus at 11 am.
