WEEK 3--RUNNERS OF THE WEEK

The two runners being recognized for their outstanding achievements during week 3 each had great races during Cluster Meet #1.
ROCIO RAMIREZ-CASTRO--ran a great race at the Cluster Meet. She placed 7th overall (2nd for Downey). She ran 21:50 (a 1:18 improvement from the Sierra Inv) becoming only the third Downey girls' runner to break 22 min for three miles in the past 5 years. Her surprise placing propelled the girls to an upset victory over Grace Davis, and to 3rd place overall in the team standings.


ERNESTO LIMON--placed 15th overall (3rd for Downey) in the most recent Cluster Meet. Ernesto was one of the few boys to improve on his time from the Sierra Inv. He ran 19:45 (for a 28 sec improvement). The coaches feel that Ernesto real strength lies in his positive attitude and team leadership skills.

Great job Rocio and Ernesto. We look forward to seeing your continued growth and success over the rest of the season.
