AV - Cross Country

Minutes Sheet for Week #13

We had 4 revisions to our Shadow Cliffs all-time list for the 3k course at the time trial yesterday.

On the girls’ side, Surabhi Kumar led the way with the #7 all-time mark on the course for Amador Valley High School with her time of 12:15. Just behind, at 12:17, Juliette Fletcher crossed the line tied with Kelly Parsons for #8 all-time.

On the boys’ side, Aidan Boyle made his cross country debut with a bang, also tying for the #8 spot all-time with a time of 10:15. Pressing right up against Peter Schlachte’s all-time record was Jack Gray, who ended up 1 second behind Peter in the #2 spot with a time of 9:56. Jack improved his spot from the #9 time of 10:17 that he ran last year.

No longer qualifying for the all-time list for the girls are Bliss Bergmark, who ran 12:31 in 2015 and Karly Laffer, who ran 12:28 in 2014. On the boys’ side, Kellen Cole, whose 10:21 mark from 2006 was bumped off of the list. Kellen’s time is significant because the course we ran yesterday used to be used for the EBAL frosh/soph championship race before that race was changed to the 3 mile distance. Kellen ran his time as a freshman and held the all-time record for the frosh/soph race at EBAL’s. I guess he still does hold that record and it will never be broken because that course is not contested any more.

Results will be in xcstats by tomorrow, but for now, here are the results.

All athletes are required to turn in a filled out pre-season evaluation by Monday August 21st. This will essentially act as this season’s goal sheet. Athletes are expected to spend time thinking about each question and answering thoughtfully.

If you were signed up for xcstats last year, you are still signed up and don’t need to do anything. If not, you need to register by Friday, August 18th using the attached instructions. Our password for this season is avxc#17.
