MMC Cluster #2 Results

The MMC schools met up for the second time this season. This time the racing took place at Gregori HS.

The F/S girls were first up on the 2mi course. Alicia Bargas seems to be finding her confidence to compete with anyone. Her time of 15:07 was good for 3rd place. My prediction is that she will sooon be moved up to Varsity and be beating much more seasoned and complacant runners. Erin Redding was next across the line in 15:59; 7th place. Eleni Quick placed 12th, 16:16; Carolyn Fraze placed 19th, 17:02; Dejanee Martin placed 20th, 17:17; and Abby Homan placed 21st, 17:25. There were 29 runners. They lost to MHS but squeaked past Enochs 27 to 29. They soundly beat all of the other schools.

The F/S boys 2mi race was next. The boys didn't have a scoring team today. Justin Goering led the way in 17th place with a time of 12:47. Tanner Walsh was the next Knight across the line in 21st, 12:54. Conner Hannon placed 25th, 13:01; and newcomer Gerson Zuniga was 31st in 13:17. There were 63 runners.

As with the first cluster meet, the VG race was the most hotly contested of the day. Sierra Durham led a pack of about 12 girls through the first 1.5 miles (Natalie Franco and Rory Jimenez were also at the back of this group). At this point the pack began to separate. Sierra was still in or near the lead for the next 1/2 mile until Hinkle of Enochs bolted to the front and stretched the pack even farther. Still in second place Sierra closed on Hinkle and took the lead with 500m remaining. With 200m left Makau (Enochs) passed Sierra and near the finish line Hinkle passed Sierra again. Sierra's 3rd place (her best league finish ever), 20:23 was 2 seconds off the winning time and 47 secs faster than she ran on this course last year. Rory finished the race of her life in 9th, 21:28 (2:23 faster than she ran the same course last year). Natalie was close behind in 12th, 21:59 (1:33 faster than last year). The supporting cast was strong. Rocio Ramirez 18th, 22:32; Madeleine Souza 19th, 22:35; Katie Schreder 22nd, 23:28 (14 secs faster than last year); Karina Redding 25th, 24:01; and Anna Casas 26th, 24:08. On the team side the girls again finished 3rd. Head to head they were beaten by Enochs 26 to 31 and MoHi 27 to 28. Using invitational scoring E 50, M 57, TD 61, GR 89, B 95, J 175

The varsity boys took to the course last. Andrew Osgood had easily won the first cluster meet. On this day he seemed to be lacking his normal energy. After the first 1.5 miles Heese (Modesto) made a strong move to separate from Andrew. Andrew had no answer. He finished in an uncontested 2nd place, 17:19 (18 secs faster than last year). The team was missing an ailing Pierson Devers and the gap back to the next Downey runner was a big one. Guadalupe Torres was the second Knight across the line in 18th place, 1907 (37 secs faster than last year). Right behind him was an improving Alfonso Urbano 19th, 19:12. Danny Mauricio finished 24th in 19:33. Kenji Soares rounded out the scoring by stopping the clock in 19:50 (1:15 faster than last year) in 27th place. The boys finished in 3rd behind Modesto and Gregori.
