Clifford Larkins Competes for H.P. in the 50 Yard Dash, 1962 and the hop, step, and jump, 1963
Like Coach Ranvir Singh,
my college triple jump mentor, Coach Kenneth Mapp, my junior high school mentor
was also instrumental in helping me to later set college records and attain

I have written a short story in tribute to Mr. Mapp. If you would like to read and visualize
how he got me started as a triple jumper, please click on the story's title below.
