In 1986, as previously described, MICHAEL HANDES (#518) was run out for 99, waiting all week on 96 not out for 5th grade v Ex Services. I'm not going to describe how it happened but if you bump into Bill Johnson, ask him. In 3rd grade, IAN GREAM (#527) and PAUL BLOOMFIELD (#526) added a grade record 66 for the 7th wicket v Ex Services.
