Joel Lewitz and Robert Picker Still Running Strong

Monday, April 12 2010


Joel Lewitz and Robert Picker, both members of the HP Class of 1962, competed in the Bay Area Senior Games.  They braved horrendous weather conditions at the Stanford University Track and ran their events in a downpour.  They ran in the age 65-69 track events and did very well.  Joel won the gold medal in the 1500 meter run.   In the 800 meter run, Robert took the silver and Joel took the bronze medal.  "We are giving it our best to stay fit, just as Coach Ault inspired us to do", Picker says.  
Congratulations to both of these Highland Park High School Track & Field Legends!
