Corvallis, Ore. – Former Oregon State national champion Dale Story (second from left) was the only Beaver selected to the Pacific-12 Conference’s All-Century Cross Country team, which was released on Monday night.
Running barefoot, Story captured the 1961 individual championship on a 30-degree day in Lansing, Mich., and led the Beavers to the first NCAA team title in school history.
Story finished the four-mile course in 19:46 and won comfortably by about 40 yards. He was followed by teammates Rich Cuddihy (12), Bill Boyd 16th (16), Cliff Thompson (25) and Jerry Brady (51).
