Stanford Invitational Coverage begins...

First some more newspaper coverage from this past weekend

From Paly Voice:Boys' cross country finishes second at Lowell Invite

Please let us know what race your team will be competing in this weekend at Stanford.

You can find a map of the course at the following link:

It looks like the same course as last year. Hopefully the weather will cooperate this year as last year's meet turned into quite the survival fest, especially for the teams competing in the afternoon.

What do you enjoy the most about the Stanford Invitational?

    18:19
    18:27
    18:45
    19:02

    Division II
    17:32
    17:55
    18:21
    18:37
    18:39

    Division III
    17:46
    18:40
    18:44
    18:53
    19:03

    Division IV
    18:02
    18:39
    19:40

    thanks. a lot of people have graduated, last years toro park times were not as fast but that may have been due to the heat. this year looks like a toss up depending on whether carlmont or gilroy qualifies.

    Yes, Mountain View will have 14 boys and 14 girls race, but I believe at this point you already know that. See you Saturday, and good luck to Crystal Springs Uplands.
