Didn’t Terry Bradshaw own the state javelin record for a really long time?


He did, but another guy named Eugene Maurice Orowitz.
Eugene was an excellent javelin thrower, with his 193 ft 4 in (58.93 m) toss in 1954 being the longest throw by a high schooler in the United States that year. This earned him an athletic scholarship to the University of Southern California. An arm injury ended his time in college, the kid ended up doing ok after that.
You might remember his stage name, Michael Landon, Little Joe.
