Citation: The Cal great Leamon King tied the World record for the 100 yard dash at 9.3 seconds at the Modesto Relays.
How about adding the Cal great 100 / 220 yd sprinter Willie White. Coach White coached at Berkeley HS since 1966. He was a World-class sprinter who ranked 4th in the World at 100 yards in 1957, 10th in 1958, and ran a leg on Cal's World Record sprint medley (3:18.8, 1958) and placed 6th in the 1960 Olympic Trials 100.
How much of our Cal "metrics" has been lost in the conversion to the metric system and time/history?
I don't remember Mike Farmer ... except for "thee" Mike Farmer of USF basketball. I was referring to a local Lad named Dixon Farmer who ended up running for Occidental U. Should have been a Bear.
