THE INDIANA ASSOCIATION of Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches (IATCCC) honors the accomplishments of Indiana athletes through its annual hall of fame nominations and recognition

1982 Gary Roosevelt Boys' 4x100 Relay Team

  • High School: Gary Roosevelt
  • HOF Type: Athlete, Relay Team
  • Year Inducted: 2020

The 1982 4x100 Gary Roosevelt relay team still holds the IHSAA state finals record some 38 years later in 41.02. It was a historical group that made up this relay: Don Young who at this writing holds the number #2 spot on the 100-meter all-time list at 10.19, Glenn Moore third in 10.22, Jeffrey Patrick fifth in 10.25 and Alan Price, who might have been among the list of great sprinters had he not been running with such great dashmen. Three of the relay members would become the only athletes from a school to place first (Jeffery Patrick), second (Don Young) and third (Glen Moore) in an IHSAA state championship. They all had to meet the qualifying standard in the IHSAA regional meet to qualify to the state meet (only two automatically qualify in each event).

All went on to outstanding collegiate careers: Jeff Patrick, University of Iowa; Don Young, Pasadena Junior College; Alan Price, Southwest Michigan and Glenn Moore, Pasadena Junior College. That quartet ran an even swifter 40.92 a few days earlier in the regional that year!
