(All teams, except football, that is. We'll be posting that soon.)
Edison senior Matt McElroy finished his high school cross country career in fine fashion, placing second overall at the 2009 Footlocker Cross Country National Finals at Morley Field in Balboa Park, San Diego.
Fresh off their 3rd straight CIF Division I state championship, the Dana Hills boys cross country produced another big performance with a sixth place finish Saturday at the Nike Cross Country Team Nationals in Portland, Oregon.
Junior Ricardo Campuzano led the Dolphins (238 points), placing 51st overall in a time of 15:53, while fellow junior Connor Kaddatz (15:59) was 55th.
The Dolphins effort was the best among all California teams that participated in the meet.
Boerne High of Texas (195 points) was the overall winner.
Edison senior Matt McElroy finished fourth overall at the Foot Locker Western Regional Saturday at Mt. San Antonio College.
McElroy, who was second in last week’s Division II state final, finished in a time of 15:34.
In the girls' Regional, Dana Hills junior Alaina Alvarez finished ninth overall in a time of 18:25.
Both runners will compete in the Foot Locker Cross Country National Championships, which will be held next Saturday at Balboa Park in San Diego.
Here are the results from today's CIF Cross Country state championships.
The Dana Hills boys cross country team became only the second in history to win three consecutive Division I state titles.
The Dolphins (104 points) had four runners finish in the top 30, including junior Ricardo Campuzano, who finished 14th in a time of 15:36.
Royal High (113 points) and Arcadia (115 points) rounded out the top three.
Laguna Beach completed its strong 2009 distance running season by winning the school's first state title since 2004.
Led by junior Matt Neev (15:44), who finished second overall, the Breakers (69 points) placed four runners in the top 16, easily outdistancing second-place McFarland High (122 points).
Laguna Beach has won three state titles since the state meet began in 1987.
Edison senior Matt McElroy closed his CIF season with a strong effort, finishing second in the Division II state final.
Loyola junior Elias Gedyon (15:00) pulled away in the last 400 meters of the race to finish ahead of McElroy (15:02).
So much for that weather forecast of clear skies and moderate temperatures.....at least for now.
We're 30 minutes away from the start of the championships, it's 46 degrees (wind chill of 42), a light drizzle is falling, and the sun is nowhere in sight. (Conditions are better than the blinding snow storm that accompanied my journey over the Grapevine.)
A rainstorm did hit the area late last night and early this morning, and the course appears to be soggy, which could factor into the results.
Stay tuned to OC Varsity throughout the morning and early afternoon for updates on all the action live from Woodward Park. (Pending my fingers not freezing solid)
