Mexican captures surprising second
A 19-year-old Mexican was the big surprise to spectators in yesterday's 10,000 meter run event in the Kansas Relays.
Juan Martinez, dark horse behind favorites John Lawson, KU graduate, and Pat McMahon, Oklaoma Baptist, led the field of approximately 30 entrants for a good part of the race.
Overtaken by Lawson on the final lap of the race, Martinez held a close second all the way to finish with a 29:55.6 clocking.
Noted as the Mexican and South American cross country champion, he has clocked a time of 28:30.0 in the same race in Uruguay, his coach said.
