Layman was one of the top runners for the Juniata College cross country and track and field teams during his four years on College Hill. He earned a total of four varsity letters on the cross country scene and picked up three monograms as a member of the track and field unit. In cross country action, he finished 16th, 12th, 9th and 24th at the Middle Atlantic Conference (MAC) championship as a freshman, sophomore, junior and senior, respectively. During his time with the fall harriers, Juniata was an impressive 26-0 over the four years and placed third at the MAC championship in 1959. He placed as high as 16th at the NCAA championship as well. As a distance runner for the track and field team, he posted his finest showing at the conference championship by taking second in the mile and third in the half-mile in 1960. Juniata placed eighth in the field of squads that spring. Off of the competitive surface, Layman was a member of Student Government and was a Senator for Athletics.
