THE GEORGE FOX CLASSIC
15th October
Jim comments on the races: What a day- races were moved up 2 hours which meant we had to scramble to get across the mountains in time to race. Reason – big storm in the pacific which blew in while our kids were racing – great xc weather – winds gusting to 50mph, rain and mud – we lost 2 tents.
we won the both JV races, Varsity boys and 2nd in the girls varsity. Olivia put away a strong field in the girls event – beating 6 girls that had run sub 18 min this season. Desert Vista from Arizona won the team race. Next big meet will be the State Champs on November 5th.
