And two teams in the downriver, or racing boats, turned in times of less than two hours, despite a cold drizzly start, gusty winds, and a burning sunny finish. The race was sponsored by the UCB. Cullowhee Wilderness Outfitters, and Jackson County Recreation Department. Jim East and Roger Roundtree. two veteran North Carolina paddlers. captured first place in the downriver class with a time of two hours. 56 minutes and 55 seconds—just five seconds ahead of the second place team. Frank Marchman and Hugh Caldwell, a team from the University of the South at Sewanee. Tenn. In the intercollegiate class, where only college, university and technical school students were allowed to participate. Jimmy Idol and Danny Bennett of Cullow hec took first place with a time of 3:09:17. In the men's open class Jimmy Wcems and Greg Hall of Cullowhcc snagged first place with a time of 3:13:49—a feat which many experienced paddlers termed "remarkable" since Wcems paddled with a nine-pound cast supporting a broken foot. In the mixed class. Jcannic West and Payson Kennedy of Nantahala took top honors with a time of 3:17:58. The women's class was won bv Bcckv Gray and Mickcv Piras. also of Nantahala. with a time of 2^:XV. 15. The field consisted of 24 teams, down from last year. Roger Roundtree. a race coordinator, said the addition of another 10 miles for this year's race "probably scared a lot of paddlers awav." And even the veterans, like Hugh Caldwell of the University cf the South, remarked on the length. "I don't like u. '-ivc a car 25 miles, much less paddle a canoe," the 30-year whitewater veteran remarked. The race began at the confluence of the Fast and West forks of the Tuckasegee River at the community of Tuckasegee and ended at the community of Whitticr between Svlva and Bryson City.
