More great marks from SoCal masters championships
Results are now posted from the USATF Southern California Association Masters Championships of June 9. Many are eye-catching. In addition to meet records previously pointed out by Jeff Davison, we see four more: In the M50 discus, Ralph Fruguglietti threw 55.92 (183-5), beating a mark by the late Parry O’Brien. Stan Whitley’s 400 was 58.81, not 58.91 as previously reported. In M70, Jesse Carrington ran the 400 in another beat-your-age time of 67.46, and M75 Don Cheek clocked 1:16.17 for 400. Also quite notable, the M45 debut of San Diego’s Jai Black, who ran the 100 in 12.97 and the 200 in 25.67 — by far the best in the nation in that age group. Phil Raschker’s W45 records of 12.50 and 25.56 are in jeopardy.
