Tom Joerres, ’74 Elected to Carthage Athletic Hall of Fame
Posted –
Congratulations to brother Tom Joerres, ’74, who was elected to the Carthage College Athletic Hall of Fame for 2020.
He led Carthage to three consecutive top-five finishes in the NAIA cross country championship meets (1971 through 1973). At one point, he held school records in four track and field events; his 1973 time in the 3,000-meter steeplechase would have qualified for the previous year’s U.S. Olympic team trials.
