II was seven years ago at Payson I ligh that Waters last taught, but shes back in the thick of things, especially Ibis spring with the responsibility of coaching the womens track team at Weber High School. I didnt know if Id ever come back, but now Im really looking forward to the upcoming season with these girls, said the first year Warrior coach. Waters claims that sophomores will be the strength of the 1980 spring learn. Over 50 girls showed up for track and field with sophomores completely dominating the numbers. It appears to be one of those years in which anyone could run away with the girls track championship and the Warriors like their chances, despite the lack of experience. Waters says the sophomores enthusiasm will carry them through. Weber sported a strong field in the long distance events last fall in cross country with the likes of the Jenkins girls. But the family has moved to Wyoming, taking with them some of Webers hopes for titles in the long events. Even with the Jenkins gone, Camille Davis, will provide plenty of competition. She is a sophomore who finished second in the Region One cross country race this past fall. Kristin Fraser, who has already Roy track team plans to compete earned a track and field scholarship to Weber State College, appears to be the regions choice in the girls high jump event. She will be backed up by Diane Huss, Janae Tipes and a host of' talented sophomores.

Last season the Warriors finished fifth in the league among eight teams. As was the story last year, the Warriors lack in depth in the sprinting events, something Brooks says will hurt any teams chances for a championship. Brooks track and field history stems back to his high school days in Oregon where he participated in the shot put and the discus events. He later played football at Brigham Young University before coming to Weber High School. His first year as a Warrior mentor, was spent as an assistant to Gary Alverson. Fifield returns Webers main hope in the 1600 and 3200 meter races appears to be Tracy Fifield. Last week he finished third and second in those events respec- - against the best the region has offer, Craig Galloway. to Marshall Hislop will provide Brooks with plenty of depth in those two events. Russ Barton and LaMar Hill appear primed and ready for competition in the 800 meter race. Dave Wade should contend with Scott Carter and Lanny Nelson for titles in the shot put and discus. Webers Dick Veirra will also be competitive in these events. Weber High sprinters include Scott Yearsley, Alan Taylor, Curt Crompton and Hal Lewis. Lewis placed first in the meet last week against Bonneville in the 100 meters. Kevin Taylor took first place against the Lakers in the intermediate hurdles and could be a threat for the region title this spring. Pole vaulters include Bob Kelly and Steve Martinez. Kelly was another first place finisher last week looks to battle region foes in the high jump this spring. Here he goes in practice jump Look out Friedli, here comes Art Hansen Look out, Doug Friedli, your two mile record at Roy High School (9:59 minutes) is in jeopardy.

His time at a major meet in Saint George last week was way below the 10: 14 time required to qualify for the Utah State Finals in May, and the track season has just begun. In a dual meet with Clearfield Hansen took first in butt) the 1600 and 3200 meters, which are just a few yards short of the mile and two mile runs. Two days later he ran again at the Saint George meet, where he finished sixth in the mile and third in the in some fast company from fourteen Utah High schools. Art Hansen was born Nov. 30, 1961 in Ogden. He didnt get r serious about running until he joined the track team as a at Sand Ridge Junior High School, but since then he has made a name for himself. He did well for Sand Ridge, and then lettered three years in track at Roy, and two years in cross country. He is a sure point-gette- r for state honors, this year, if his knees dont let him down. Art suffered injuries to both knees when he was eight years old. and last year arthritis set in. After running the Weber State Half Marathon 13.1 miles) and winning first place in the high school the crossdivision, the arthritis raised its ugly head. Art country season to rest his knees, but is now in full swing in track. He finished seventh overall in the Weber State, event, which featured over 400 runners from all walks of life. Those who beat him were either college runners, or skilled distance men, still in training. Art Hansen, son of John Hansen, and Mrs. Colleen Burdess, has a lot going for him in his busy schedule. He is Studentbody First Vice President at Roy High, where he was honored this year as Royal of the Month, for high achievements, and at present, he is a Royal Guardsman, on campus.

Art also holds down a part time job, stocking groceries in a store in downtown Ogden. Somewhere, in his fast schedule, he finds time to stay in toprunning form, and he loves it. Coach Dan Sheffer said some nice things about his distance runner of 1980. Art Hansen is about as dedicated as any kid we ever had at Roy High School, said the coach. He trains hard and works even harder, without being pushed. Hes a clean-cu- t kid and continued Sheffer.

Doug Friedli, who owns the best time for both the mile and the two mile runs at Roy, is excited about Hansen's assault on his record. "I thought he would do it last year, said Doug. He is a fine runner, and I hope he breaks that record. Friedli is running the 3000 yard steeple chase at Weber State, and last week placed second in a race in Tempe Arizona. In a time of 8:59.8, Friedli best out of four but was defeated National Champion, Henry Marsh, formerly of by three-tim- e Brigham Young University.

He is a very personable young man, and proud of his running skills. All of Roy is pulling for Art Hansen and especially Doug Friedli, whose record is in jeopardy. two-mil- Kelly Johnson, junior, took first in both the high jump and 110 hurdles last week. Jeff Reid, Kent Briggs and Joe Wadsworth will battle it out in the 400 meter race. Reid should be a favorite to win the region title in the event. Javelin throwers inclue Stavey, Pat Jaminson and Ken Brothers. Brooks says the region should be more balanced this year than in years he has been here. He hesitates in selecting a region champion, but favors Clearfield, Bonneville and Layton to be near the top.
