TVL Opener - 9/4/2024

 What a Great Meet!

The Huskies went into the two varsity races at the TVL opener knowing that it was going to be a tough test of our fitness.  On the girls side, we knew we'd be pushed by Hilmar and on the boys side we knew Ripon was going to be very good.  When all was said and done, we'd come out with two hard earned victories.

On the varsity girls side, Sophie Benham ran only her 3rd cross country race in the last 2 years and won over a very tough Sidney Logsdon of Hilmar, leading the all of the Lady Husky runners to finish in the top 50% of the field.  After one meet, the TVL standings for Varsity girls are as follows.

1st place - Hughson
2nd place - Hilmar
3rd place - Ripon
4th place - Ripon Christian
5th place - Escalon
6th place - Sonora
7th place - Orestimba

On the varsity boys side, senior Bobby Nieto led a fast improving pack of underclassmen to outdistance Ripon by a score of 51-60.  As the season progresses and our young team gains experience we expect to only get better.  For the boys team, bringing our 5th scorer closer to our top runner will be of paramount importance.  We had a gap of 1:28 yesterday from our first to our 5th, but for teams like ours, a gap of under 60 seconds will probably be required by the end of the season.  #teamgoals
