So many killer races today at Willow Hills. Matt Strangio and jesuit dominated the Boys D1 race, getting 6 of their runners in before their competitors 1st man. Isabelle Fauria coming all the way back from a long term injury to leader her St. Francis team to victory in Girls D2. Garret Gough running one of the fastest times in Willow Hills history and the fastest time of the day in leading Nevada Union to the D3 crown. Gough's 15:23 was the 4th fastest time in history at Willow Hills trailing only German Fernanedez's 15:03 record and the 15:05 of Luis Grijalva (Northern Arizona) and 15:10 of Michael Vernau (Stanford). The D3 Boys team race was insane! NU won with 61 points, Vista del Lago was only 7 points behind in second, Merced was only 10 points behind them in 3rd and Del Oro was the unlucky team to finish 4th and 1 point from a state championship berth. Del Oro's Riley Chamberlain continued her amazing freshman season by running the fastest time of the day on the girls side with a sterling 17:57 finish.
I thought the meet had been cancelled, and the sub-section results were going to be used to determine the state qualifiers? Also, what was the weather like?
Those were rumors. I heard the weather was quite good.
The meet was postponed, if you look at an earlier post on this site, it discusses the contingencies. They eliminated Frosh, Soph and J.V. races, and ran the varsity races early. There was a little smoke in the air, but not nearly like in the downtown Sacramento area. It stayed at a moderate AQI level through the meet and was over by 11. If they would have been unable to hold the meet, they would have used sub-section times.
By moderate do you mean the 51-00 moderate range, from the index?
Conditions were pretty darn good. AQI was 74 at the start of the first race and it cleared up even more by the end of the last race. Temperature was perfect with no wind. They just squeezed it in as the AQI went south soon after. At the time of this post it's 242 in Folsom. Nice backup plan from the SJS to let these kids determine their fate on the course.
great races yesterday in D2 with Whitney boys winning their first Section title in cross country after a several runner up finishes over the last 6 years. Rocklin ran great as always and BV always is good. These three squads are the class of the division and will be for some time to come as well. Whitney will only lose one scoring boy and their frosh soph group is really good. BV has tons of guys in the program and they will continue to be strong. Rocklin has continuously been a top team and they have several frosh soph that will have to fill a big void after this years graduation. The Whitney girls are second again for the 4th time in 7 years.They all come back next year and are really young. Should be a strong group for years to come.
