Thanks for your info and sharing. Very interesting.Turns out Gary Eggers of Audubon set the record in 1963 at 266.5 feet (about 89 yards.) Snook of City High won the state track meet event in '61 and '62 with throws of 237 and 228 feet. Of note, Denny Pauling of Paullina won the Class B in '61 at 196 feet. He was Iowa basketball MVP in 65-66. Snook apparently never held the record. Mike Reilly of Dubuque won the state meet in '60 with 242 feet. Reilly was all-conference at Iowa and played in NFL. Event discontinued after 1963.

Would I be correct to assume Denny Pauling’s brother was Brian who played with Neil Fegebank on the great Paullina teams?
