 Clark College, Vancouver, Wash., Track & Field Honor Roll

 1955 - Championship Team

Clark Athletics is pleased to honor members of Clark College’s first ever Track and Field Championship Team of 1955 including Ira Eagle, Frank Glenn, Howard Glenn, Jack Hoage, Fred Lane, Al Martin, Cecil Miller, Jack O’Donnell, Jack Parthenay, Dale Peterson, and Doug Ramlow. Their record-setting year will forever be remembered in Clark College history. From the 1955 Clark College Spring Galapagon: “Winning 10 firsts and failing to score in only one of the 15 events, Clark’s track team swamped the field in the Southern Division Junior College Conference track meet at Centralia. The Penguins amassed 73 points, only 5 less than the total of the other three schools combined, to take title on a wet track under unfavorable weather conditions. Clark was also the only school qualifying more than one man in an event. Eight events at this conference meet will have two Clark entries each; while four events will have only one. In addition, Clark’s mile relay team qualified easily.”
