A huge kudos to the girls' cross country team for capturing Sea View League
championships on all three levels: Varsity, Junior Varsity, and Frosh-Soph.
The girls ran well to say the least. One of my favorite things to do is to
compare times from 2008 to 2009, same course such as today. The following
girls ran significantly better from 2008 to 2009 during Sea View League
Finals at Irvine Regional Park on the same exact course: Kamilah
Foley(18.10-17.20), Justine Rea(18.38-17.24), Makenna Smith(18.40-17.12),
Shelby Niles(18.45-17.54), Jessica Varela(19.59-18.00), Kora
Johnson(19.09-17.33), Dani Brabender(19.39-17.31)...(10.06 for the Seven
Varsity Girls, an average of 1.27 faster)...Aaren Cadieux(18.58-18.07),
Amanda Lee(20.23-19.23), Lauren Moore(20.27-19.31), Amy
Tolentino(20.56-18.44), Alyza Rathor(20.23-19.33), Alex Reich(20.26-19.20),
Melanie Driessen(21.14-19.07), Jocelyn Dorame(21.31-20.44), Allison
Perry(22.29-20.53), Brooke Kather(19.09-18.45), Olivia Smith(22.57-21.31),
Dana Gersten(23.05-21.28), Emily Berg(23.05-19.50), Karen
Ascencio(23.35-20.52), Tiffani Barham(24.05-19.32, #1, WOW!), Crystal
Eng(24.32-22.08), Molly McClary(25.07-23.16), and Jessica
Stewart(25.44-22.56). Again, congratulations to all who ran and contributed
to team victories on all levels. Race winners were Aaren Cadieux(JV) and
Brooke Kather(FS), and our top freshman was Hannah Randall in a PR 19.35,
while four other freshmen broke 20.45, including Brianna Parish(20.19),
Rachel Stillman(20.25), Madison Schuetz(20.28), and Stephanie Lowe(20.37)
Thank You for a great day, a wonderful season...quite a ride. Mama Clemons
and myself are proud to be your coaches. On to CIF and State.
