Cross Country/Track & Field (1976-81)
Lonnie Gee, native of Iuka, Kan., was a four-time All-America performer for the Tigers in cross country/track and field. He was an All-America performer for the FHSU cross country team in 1980, helping the Tigers to a fourth-place finish in the nation that year. He joined J.P. Worcester as the Tigers' two All-Americans on that year's squad. He was also the 1978 District 10 Champion in cross country, but just missed All-American honors that year at the national meet. He owns the second-fastest 1500-meter outdoor track and field time in FHSU history behind only John Mason, and was a conference champion in the event three times (1979, 1980, and 1981). He was a three-time All-America performer in indoor track and field, twice in the 1-mile run (third-place was his highest finish in 1980), and once in the distance medley relay. He was a five-time all-conference performer in cross country and track and field combined, and helped the Tigers to the CSIC Outdoor Track and Field Championship in 1980.
