COACH MARV PETERSON Coach Marv Peterson began his third year as Weber track coach with a young and inexperienced team. There were only three consistent performers and Coach Peterson had to mold many newcomers into shape for the ten scheduled meets. Peterson took over as track coach in 1962 when Ray Rhead retired from coaching. After receiving his Master's Degree at Utah State University, he came to Weber State as Inter-mountain Indian School Co-ordinator. He transferred to the health education department where he is now Director of Intramurals, Cross-country, and an assistant professor, in addition to his track duties. He played guard on the 1951 Weber football team. He also captained the team. While at Weber, Peterson set the ICAC javelin record which stood for 10 years. He served in the Marine Corps for three years. He made the all-Marine football team in 1954. Peterson holds the javelin record of 232'. He posted that record in the all-Marine track meet of 1955.
