“This was five straight championships for Dan McKim,” CCSF Athletic Director Steve Conway told IronMind, “and the first ever sheaf event at Pleasanton was very well received; Matt Vincent was the winner after hitting a 33' personal record.

“After day one Dan McKim was ahead of Matt Vincent by 6 points. but Matt picked up 3 points. on Sunday in the open stone and the light weight for distance. Scott Rider finished third.

“In the women's class, Adriane Wilson proved that she has come back from her knee surgery by holding off power lifter Kristy Scott and newcomer Megan McKee. Megan is the daughter of former pro Ron McKee and a recent graduate of Fresno State, where she distinguished herself as a thrower on their track and field team.”
