Show t 1 I May 23, 1979. Page CLEARFIELD COURIER, Mark WoymemrJ mik By Keith Duncan Last Saturday at Weber State College, Clearfield Highs Mark Wayment did more than just make history for his school, his heroics firmly established, with no question, the strong tradition Clearfield is gaining each spring in the sport of track and field. x Mark, who is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Sherman Wayment of Sunset, Utah, became the first athlete in the of Clearfield High School to win an individual state championship in track and field. And he did it in the e tough and grueling event. Mark will go on to participate in the Southwest Classic at Tempe, Arizona This featured classic will involve the top tracksters in six of the surrounding states into one combined track and field meet. Mark will represent Utah in the Hes definitely the greatest athlete that Ive coached, said Coach John Flint without little hesitation, Youll two-mil- two-mil- e. never find a kid with a better attitude, a great desire to excell, and a will to win like he has. Believe me, its been my priviledge to coach Mark. Besides representing Clearfield brilliantly all year in athletic uniforms, Wayment is quite a scholar also. He has already recieved the Outstanding Senior Award and will graduate this week as one of the top students in his class. He presently holds a 3.9 grade point average. Theres no question Mark can go to either Utah State, Weber State, or the University of Utah on either an academic or athletic scholarship, stated Coach Flint. Wayment holds three school records for the Falcons and he busted each of those marks in a single season. In the mile he has finished an even 4:30 in 0:37 flat and minutes, the two-mil- e the 880 in two minutes flat.. Before capturing the state e this week at Weber State, Mark went through three days of sickness, a good two-mil- common spring cold. Two days before the meet, he began to feel better and worked overtime in preparing himself for the featured state meet. His 9:37 time in the two mile is the second fastest time for any this year. Before capturing the state e win, Mark was crowned in the Region One meet as the top miler. He finished sescond to Bonnevilles event. Ed Eyestone in the two-mil-e I felt all along that Mark had the potential to become a great and thats why I recruited him for the event a couple of years ago. Some of the things I noticed were his natural stride and his desire to always want to be first. I sorta visioned he and Eyestone battling it out someday for the championship. I only wish Eyestone could have been well enough to run against Mark in those final races, concluded Flint. Last fall Wavment was a third place finisher in the Region One Cross Country run and during the winter he was the silent but vital part of Clearfields starting five on the basketball court.. Desire to get rebounds and hold opponents to low scoring outputs were the things he thrived on.

Yes, Wayment will definitely go down in the pages of Clearfield history, as one of the greatest performers in its history.

The meeting is open to anyone interested in learning current information about the regional fishing outlook for the June 2nd opener. Big game enthusiasts will learn of Division hunting recommendations to the Board of Big Game Control for the 1970 season. short film strip will outline recent the Northern Region. The reminder of time will be spent answering publics questions. Jack Rensel, Division Regional Supervisor indicated that the meeting couldnt fall at a better time. Regional personnel will have formulated big and comgame recommendations of the netting gill spring pleted Regional lakes and reservoirs. Streams will be stocked and access conditions to fishing areas will be known. We will be able to provide the information possible to best the public, said Rensel. A widlife in te Trout stocking program noted Porcupine Reservoir will be site of a study to improve Utahs nbow trout stocking program and termen will have an opportunity to p with the study. During the spring 1 fall of 1978, 39,000 fingerling nbow trout of six various brood ck strains were released in the ervoir by the Utah Division of Idlife Resources. Any one or all of fish of each strain may be caught fishermen as the general season ns on June 2. The study will be ivon each strain to the fishermans creel and well each fish strain grows. kng at how well s v he study is a cooperative venture ween the Division of Wildlife sources and the Utah Cooperative hery Research Unit, at Utah State iversity headed up by Mark Hudy, search Assistant, Prior to stocking, :h fish was tagged with a small ce of coded wire injected into the tut of the anesthetized fish. The led wire identifies each s in of nbow trout and the fish j j weight when i earch team will coni " iV Porcupine Reservoir during the 9 fishing season. Fish in the jlers creel will be passed through a detector. Tagged fish will be Ighed and measured. Porcupine 'frs will find cooperation well ;t'i ' : worth their time, since the research team needs the heads of the tagged fish and is willing to clean all tagged fish. laboratory wire tags will be extracted from the snouts of each fish to identify which strain of rainbow it represents. This information along with length and weight measurements will help in the evaluation of each strain as the best candidate for Utah reservoirs. Dexter Pitman, Regional Fisheries Manager for the Division of Wildlife Resources indicates that at present, 30 percent or less of the fingerling rainbow trout placed into Utah reservoirs and lakes return to fishermen creels. Certain strains will leave a reservoir, some will inhabit deep water, some will inhabit the shoreline and some are just too smart to be easily caught. Hopefully, a strain can be chosen which will return to the creel at a greater rate, thus shortening the time between bites. Fishermen venturing to Porcupine this season might take home a Sand Creek or perhaps a New Zealand strain of rainbow trout. Whatever the case, your cooperation with fisheries biologists at the reservoir will be beneficial in helping evaluate which strain will be best for Porcupine Reservoir and other Utah waters.

Lori is as strong as Debbie in many respects, hits and blocks well. Debi Major, Kaysville, Utah, who played for Davis High School is another strong prospect. At our tryouts her skills were some of the best we saw and her potential is tremendous." Lisa Robinson comes from Farmington, Utah, where she played for Davis High School. She is an excellent setter and we greatly need this type of skill if we are going to be as successful! as I plan on our being this year, Coach Reeve said. Falcon track coach will remain at CHS 3-- 4-- A has a great program and theres no question Id learn a lot, but Clearfield is where Id like to stay. Flint took a little and did a lot this year in Clearfield track and field. The Falcons finished second in region and captured sixth in the state meet. He has admitted hes as proud of this group as any hes ever coached. During the past season, Coach Flint nailed down his 25th duel meet track and field win. In five years at Clearfield now, he now sports a 26-- 6 s duel meet record. Quite note worthy is the fact Clearfield won their first track and field Invitational ever, win-los- by capturing the top award in the Snow College Invitational. I firmly believe that tradition was a big factor in our finishing this year in region and state. The kids knew the tradition of track at Clearfield and they desired to keep it where it should be, said Flint.. Flint was pleased with the fine showing by all Region One schools in the state track and field finals. The sixth place finish by the track team, is the highest finish among any of the sports for' men this year at Clearfield.
