November 23, 2008 Navajo runner representing Haskell Indian Nations University finished 3rd place overall in the
Gobbler Grind Marathon in Overland Park, Kansas. His name is Leo Becenti III and I see he is listed as a runner
on your website. He completed the Marathon in a time of 2:54:22. I believe he represented Haskell and all Native
Americans very well on that day and should recieve some kind of recognition. The marathon website is www.
gobblergrindmarathon.com if you want to check. Thank You

November 23, 2008 Navajo runner representing Haskell Indian Nations University finished 3rd place overall in the
Gobbler Grind Marathon in Overland Park, Kansas. His name is Leo Becenti III and I see he is listed as a runner
on your website. He completed the Marathon in a time of 2:54:22. I believe he represented Haskell and all Native
Americans very well on that day and should recieve some kind of recognition. The marathon website is www.
gobblergrindmarathon.com if you want to check. Thank You
