Up and down the line, sprinters and hurdlers posted great marks at the USATF Southwest Association Masters Championships on Saturday at Coppell, Texas. Bill Collins didn’t run, but his book partner Rick Riddle won the M55 sprints handily in 12.29 and 25.63. And Cindy Steenbergen is back!  Now 55, she ran 13.60 and 28.58 — easily the season’s fastest in her age group. Remember Orville Rogers the miler? Now he’s a sprinter at age 91. He ran the 100 in 20.39, the deuce in 48.39, the 400 in 1:57.61 and just for fun — the 1500 in 10:52.53. In the 400 hurdles, Jeff Brower scorched a 64.80 at age 50 and a 15.58 for 100 hurdles. He also high jumped 5-4. Showoff. Thanks go to Wayne Bennett, who sent me the results below. Wayne won the M70 100 and 200 in 14.18 and 29.94, among the top times in the nation.
