Michael Carter
I do not known whether the mark was measured metrically or not. At that time in HS T&F it may not have been. It is certainly not known by its metric measurement - it is widely discussed by its imperial measurement.

And I prefer the wording I had for that intro to the paragraph, in that it emphasizes what is commonly thought of when people talk about Michael Carter and T&F. Noting that the phrasing about how far it was to the previous record, the problem is that the actual previous record was one of at least nine other throws by Carter himself. The record prior to Carter was 72’ 3 ¼” by another Dallas guy – Sam Walker in 1968.

PS: Nice to see another T&F fan around. --Fizbin 17:25, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
