Trojans Add to Their Win Column

Good thing Golden Valley has Sandles, our they would be racking up a lot of 15 to 50 scores. He won the race and was followed by seven Trojans who were lead by Bautista (Photo).

The girls race was a lot closer than expected. I do notice that Foothill's number two runner (Perla Veloz) is not in the results. Last week she got sick during the race, stopped and then started again and still did real well. Perhaps this week she is sicker.

Trojans are Victorious

It is a new era at Foothill in that Schwartz is gone and they have a new head coach. The season has started well for them with two wins in their first dual meet. In the boys race, they took the first two spots and had six in the top ten for the win.

In the girls race, Liberty's Ashley Barton (photo) won but Foothill won the team race with Natalie Fernandez leading them with her second place finish.

Trojans are ranked Third in Division 2

Two local squads are ranked 3rd and 4th in this division. Both squads have a dominate front runner and a good supporting cast too. Both also have good coaches, so look for both squads to be there in November.

The one unknown is whether Foothill's Fernandez will be at the top of her game because this past track season, she was M.I.A.
