2019 EBAL Varsity boys XC final

Thanks to Kevin Gray and parental group from Amador Valley HS.

St. Francis, Mt. View Girls

As was mentioned yesterday, the St. Francis Mt. View girls ran the 3rd fastest team time on the Crystal Springs course yesterday at the WCAL final. They also became the first team to have 7 runners dip under the 19 minute mark in the same race. Congratulations to them and best of luck to the rest of the teams competing this week.

The all-time list for the Crystal Springs course can be found at this LINK and will be updated after this season.

New Team Time Record on the Crystal Springs course for the Bellarmine Bells today

Congratulations to the Bellarmine boys who won the WCAL final today scoring 16 points. Their top 5 boys also ran a team time of 76:10 which surpasses the previous course record mark of 76.15.4 set by the 1985 Jesuit team. As noted by a poster below, all 7 Bellarmine boys are juniors.

You can check out the results from today at this link:

Pac 12 XC Championship results

How many NorCal HS runners can you identify aside from former Davis HS runner, Fiona O'Keeffe, and Cooper Teare below?
https://live.athletictiming.net/meets/4679

To answer a question in the comment section below, the last male to win the Pac 12 individual title was Matt Giusto for U of A in 1987. He went to San Mateo HS and was a national Kinney champ as a senior in 1983. The last female before O'Keeffe today was Sara Bei at Stanford who won in 2002 and 2003. She was a 4-time state XC champ in high school as well as a national Foot Locker champ in 2000.

Also from today, Ivy League XC Championship with Robert Miranda formerly of Menlo in 3rd place. Also below, Brighie Leach (Campolindo), Brooke Starn (Monte Vista) and Bella Chao (Campolindo). Other photo is Brooke Starn and Gillian Meeks who helped Harvard finish in 2nd place as a team.
