Great Cow Run: California Opens with a Win

This super-fast meet draws some of the best teams, and this year was not exception.  And the SGV’s own #4 ranked California proved to be best of the bunch, winning this 3 mile event over a fast, mostly paved course in 76:05.  Defending CIF Div. IV champs and SGV #5 Bishop Amat was 5th/76:59. (Full Results)

• 8th – 14:59  Cisco Cuellar – Sr/California
• 9th – 14:59  Julian Romero – Sr/Californi

Running shorthanded, the Bishop Amat girls were 3rd/94:48 followed by Ayala 4th/94:59.  While missing their top two returners, Amat did find the additional runner they needed to help defend their CIF Div IV title as frosh Olivia Paez debuted with a strong 8th, followed by a 9th/17:47 from Ayala senior Sydney Tullai.
