  • Cambridge - June 13-14
    1924 Cambridge - June 13-14 As in 1920, all finals were held on the second day except the walk, with heats on the first day, while all semi-finals took place on June 14, except for the 400m hurdles. A number of athletes did not make the top-4 in the trials, but were nevertheless selected because of their consistency in previous competition, showing a far greater flexibility of approach than was to be seen after World War II. The principal athletes who benefited were: Loren Murchison, Leroy Brown, John Watters, Alan Helffrich, George Lermond, Alfred LeConey, William Comins, Ernest Oberst and Pat McDonald. The New York Times noted that there were 419 entries, compared with 259 in 1920. Timing was with 1/10th and 1/5th of a second watches. Times are shown in tenths of a second for uniformity of presentation. The venue was efficiently served by the Boston Elevated Railway, which enabled large crowds to quickly get to and from the stadium. 100 Meters 15.20 Hr 1. 1. Chester Bowman (Syracuse) 10.6 2=. 3.

    USC TRACK & FIELD Times and marks for USC Track Athletes 1894 to 2018 INTRODUCTION This supplement booklet to the media guide is my effort to document every athlete who competed for the University of Southern California Track Team. Needless to say, I know everyone is not listed, but I did try. This booklet is a free download, but if you really like what you see here, I/we (Trojan Force) would be more than happy to accept any donation you’d like to send. That info will be at the end of this introduction. WHERE TO START? I wrestled with how to organize all this data knowing that the next person would have chosen a different format. But here it is, such as it is. With a men AND a women’s program we’re looking at some 6,000+ names who can be accounted for that competed for USC. This number doesn’t take into account all the relays as there are names on some of the relay teams that did not show up in any other results that I was able to find. Every effort was made to find a mark or time for every track athlete, but this just wasn’t possible. Athletes listed with no marks or times were the 2nd and 3rd place finishers in posted meet results. This booklet covers the years 1894 to 2018 for the men; the women’s supplement is still being “written” and I hope to have it done by the end of summer 2018. The early marks were gathered from posted results in the newspaper and the El Rodeo yearbook.

    C OBB T RACK AND A NGELL F IELD in the women’s 10,000 meters at Cobb Track and Angell Field and in 2003 Ethiopia’s Werknesh Kidane set a U.S. All-Comers record in the women’s 10,000 meters. The list of stadium records at Cobb Track and Angell Field is second to none. In addition, Cobb Track and Angell Field was the site of the 2002 and 2003 U.S. National and Junior National Championships, that featured track and field stars Marion Jones, Maurice Greene, Gail Devers, Allen Johnson and Adam Nelson. At the 2004 Cardinal Track and Field Invitational, 15 Olympic A-standards were achieved, including a track record by the great Sonia O’Sullivan of Ireland. Stanford’s Cobb Track and Angell Field has become the epicen- ter of track and field in the United States. Upon its renewed inception in 1996, former Director of Track and Field Vin Lananna stated, “The newly renovated Cobb Track and Angell Field is a wonderful homecoming for Stanford Track and Field. This restored facility makes it possible for Stanford to host top quality, national and international meets and provides a more intimate setting for the fans and a more visible location within the Stanford community. It is a tremendous step forward for our program, Stanford Athletics and the track and field world as a whole.” Cobb Track and Angell Field is the home of Stanford Track and Field. Through the dedicated efforts of many people, including Chuck Cobb, Otis Chandler and Pitch Johnson, Stanford’s dream for a state-of-the-art track and field facility has become a reality.
