June 2004 Exhibition Event:   220 Yard Low Hurdles:

June 2004: In California, Masters Track and Field included an exhibition 220 yard low
hurdle event during the Southern Calif. Association Open & Masters Track & Field
Championships.  The race was held at Cerritos College, Norwalk, Calif. June 12, 2004.

1st Perry McBride (29)   26.28; 2nd Ari Morrison (25)       27.19;
3rd   Jeffery Davison (46) 31.16; 4th Andrew Hecker (49)    38.23

This was the first time that Perry, Ari, and Jeff had attempted this low hurdle event.
Andy had just completed the 400 meter long hurdles moments before getting in
the blocks for the 220 yard low hurdles . . . in retrospect, Andy would have given
Jeff a great battle had the exhibition event been put on before the long hurdle race.
