Watts Places 2nd in 200 at TAC Meet

Quincy Watts had trouble in the turn and finished second Saturday night in the 200 meters at The Athletics Congress junior national championships at the University of Arizona.

Watts, a junior from Taft High, had a time of 20.67 seconds--eighth fastest in high school history. John Drummond of Odessa, Tex., College, won in 20.64.

Watts qualified for the U.S. junior national team that will compete in international meets in Vancouver, B.C., and Pullman, Wash., but said he did not plan to participate.

Pole vaulter Tom Parker of Notre Dame High finished fifth, clearing 15-3.
