1977 MEN'S FINAL
Kyle Rote, Jr. won his third title. The finals were broadcast live on ABC-TV beginning with the 100 yard dash final. I am unsure of the final results bey0ond fifth place. I am also missing results of tennis, baseball hit, bowling, and third and fifth places in the obstacle course. Thanks to Clay Parker for providing me with the tape of the first half of the finals.
Rotunda, Florida
Broadcast on February 20, 1977
Announcers: Keith Jackson, Reggie Jackson and Bruce Jenner.
