If its a track meet with six inches of snow on the ground, better count on it. If you're a senior or sophomore and look anything like a just let Uncle John get on your trail and it wont be long before you're captured. If its a region championship that Uncle John wants, expect his troops to be battling right down to the last race for it. Yes, when it comes to track and field, there arent too many things that Coach John Flint of Clearfield can t get if he wants them bad enough. Flint has the Falcons as one of the favored teams to take the Region One championship this spring in prep track and field. But looking back, there havent been too many seasons the Clearfield spring teams havent been contenders. Where track is regarded merely as something to fill time at some schools in the state, Flint is admired by fellow coaches as one of the premier mentors and someone who takes the sport seriously from the day school begins until the day it ends. Hes already brought one region crown to the school and another could come their way this spring. Since the first day Flint took over the head coaching duties, there hasnt been a single school record in any track and field event that hasnt been busted at least once. By When pole-vaulte- r. The latest record to fall was that in the shot put. Junior Mark Carter, who is being considered a favorite around the region, shattered the school record with a toss of 54 feet 11 and 34 inches. Thats the longest official shot put throw ever by a Falcon. The old record was set back in 1966. Last week Mark cut his finger in an accident in a shop class, but coach and attendants say the holder is going to be alright. Others to battle Carter in the shot put include Tom Gobinett, Robbie Browning, Alan Holyoak, Tony Bayer, Kurt Walker, Clay Checketts, Jeff Kofed and Derwin Toleman. Strong in Discus Too Carter is also leading the way in the discus having already thrown 146 44 inches. Coach Flint says his star will be up around 150 to 160 before the close of the season. Backing Carter in the discus event new-recor- d has rarely been beaten this Spring in the 100 meter dash. He'll be a serious conender for the this Spring. Gooch was also a running back on the football team. title One Region TIM GOOCH, Cage play finalized in Clearfield Jeff Baldwin, Little League Baseball Sign-up- s The Clearfield Recreation Department is now formulating its Little League Baseball program for 1980.
