With track season in full swing, a flashback to 1987 at a track meet at Glenville State shows several BHS thinclads worn out. In the middle lying down is Matt Duez who along with Lonnie Sprouse were believed to be the only state qualifiers that year. Can anyone recognize the young ladies pictured here or know anything else about this meet or the 1987 season?
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This is a picture of Morgantown as seen from Westover. And a big reason you don't see the PRT is that it was taken back in 1893. Anyone see anything that's still in place today?
