Runnin' Reuben's Hughson Preview

Were #2

2) Hughson - Team has potential for a state meet run and the counties #1 ranking. Last track season Brooks clocked a 4:46 mile as a freshman. Madrigal made the county leader board with a time of 10:51 for 3200 meters. Crowder qualified for the state meet as a freshman in cross country and also clocked a 10:31 3200 meters. His sophomore season was injury riddled but if healthy and training he can run with anyone in the county. The team will need Deal a 5:13 1600 meter runner and Vasquez a 11:30 3200 meter runner to be at their best if the team wants to take over the #1 spot. Huge omission on my part. Lundell who ran 17:34 at Legion Park last season will challenge for county first team honors and gives the Huskies another front runner.

Don't get cocky!!!
While Stanislaus County is doing much better with its distance runners than the previous few years, we are no where near what I would consider a hotbed of high school distance running.  Teams in say....Orange County would be laughing right now if they read that a team that may only have one or 2 guys under 17 was ranked second in the county.

We are doing OK, but we can do much better......

The main key to moving our program forward is to continue to increas our training milage this summer.  Leo is rocking, Caleb is steady.  Now that Pablo is back from Mexico, we'll have another guy hitting pretty big numbers.  As for the rest of you, you need to step up.
