Dear Sir:
This

apology to
Mr.

unattested material I presented
against him, in that letter and
wish to retract all derogatory
remarks I made concerning

or honor.

During the past three years a
winning
tradition.in
Cross-country
has
been
established
at Marist, with
successive records of 18-3, 18-4,
and 20-5. One of the persons
most
responsible
for
this
tradition is Bob Andrews
As a Sophomore, Bob started
out the season as number
3
man,
behind
the_ co-captains John
Forbes and John Goegel. But by
mid-season he was running even
with them, and in the final home
meet, against Fairfield, all three
broke the existing course record
of 25:56, witl'l Bob finishing
second for Marist.
In his Junior
year,
Bob
continued
to turn in solid
performances, while saving his
best race for the season finale,
the
N.A.I.A·.
District
championship. His strong placing
in the meet, held at Princeton
University, enabled the Foxes to
take
second
place
behind
Trenton State.
In the spring Bob was elected
co-captain of the Outdoor Track
team. At St. Peter's High School,
he
had been
primarily
a
half-miler, and
his
best was 2:00.
Now he was relied on more for
the· distance events, and was
usually entered in both the mile
and two-mile.
Bob had his work cut out for
him
this fall as he was leading a
cross-country squad that could
no longer depend on Forbes and
Goegel. But he proved to be an
excellent captain, · and, after a
shaky
5-5
start,
the team rattled

which
he
turned·
in
a
medal-winning
29:12
clocking·
over the rugged Van Cortlandt
Park 5-mile course.
Aside
from· his role as a
runner, Bob has been of great
service to athletics in general at
Marist. He has served as a very
active President of the Varsity
Club, as well as Chairman of the
Athletic
Committee
and
Vice-President of the Spiked
Shoe Club. Upon graduation, the
Big U will be losing not only an
athlete,
but. also
a highly
valuable leader and a close
link
between the students · and the
administration.

ballgames
that
he almost
single-handedly
won. Against
Brooklyn he scored 15 points
and had. 15 rebounds
as he
cleared the boards almost every
time
in
the second half. Against
New
Paltz, he ignited the spark
that brought
Marist from 18
points behind to win the ball
game. Joe had
14 points and an
extremely
important
18
rebounds. Still a little young, he
did a great job with the varsity.
He looks like a definite star for
the next three years at Marist as
he has a great winning attitude
to go along · with
his
constant
hustle and second effort.
Rounding out the team was

Jim Brady and Larry
Gibbons as well as sophomore
Bob

some fine ball games with his
