The entire team ran great yesterday at the Seamount – SPSL Sub-District meet. The boys took first place with 24 points. Second place Interlake scored 57. The girls placed second to a very good Interlake team. They beat us 35 to 56. The JV boys easily won the combined 2A / 3A JV race. Sarah Reiter was the individual champion in the girls race with the the fastest time of the day out of the 2A, 3A, and 4A races. Luke Garcia was our top boy, placing second in the race.
Many team members ran PRs in the meet, and we were substantially faster than we were when we raced on this course earlier in the season. This was a great way to end the regular season. The varsity boys and girls race this Saturday at American Lake at the West-Central district meet.

The girls finished in fourth place. The good news with the girls team is that some of our injured runners are beginning to train and race again.

85 degrees at Portland Meadows yesterday. Enough sun to give each of the coaches impressive farmer’s tans. And enough to cause dozens of runners throughout the day to pass out from heat stroke. I don’t think our team has seen temperatures like that since the first Bush administration. Nonetheless, most of our team ran solid to good in the meet. The pre-nationals meet has teams from all around the U.S., with a heavy emphasis on top California teams. Needless to say, the competition was fierce.
The highlight of the day in Portland for Lindbergh cross country came from the girls Danner Champs race. Our very own Sarah Reiter continues to impress with a new PR, a new school record, and a second place finish. The girl who beat her is ranked in the top 5 runners in the nation.
In other girls results, Monique Smith ran a huge PR, while Brenna Fisher and Liz Hansen ran faster at this course than they did last year. This group ran in the Varsity 1 race.
In the JV race, three of our top 7 ran PRs: Ben Platt, Mitchell Hughey, and Matt Nelsen.
The boys varsity ran solid races in the boys Danner Champs. Nathan Haley, Travis Downen, and Alex Nelsen ran PRs.
