3/22/15 Week's Highlights (TVL v MLL; F/S Showcase; Falcon Classic; Dublin Dist)

This week was a busy one (as most will be from this point on). On Wednesday the MMC schools had their first dual meets. The TVL schools took on the MML schools on the new Ripon oval. On Thursday the top youngsters competed in the Frosh/Soph Showcase. The next day a few County schools headed south to Atwater for the Falcon Classic. And yesterday, Gregori took part in the Dublin Distance Fiesta. A busy week indeed.

TVL vs MML
The county schools competing were Hughson, Riverbank, and Modesto Christian.

800m
Kim Ruvalcaba (Riverbank) led the way in a much-shorter-than-usual event for her. Her time of 2:28.31 was a PR.

5. Raley Richardson (Riverbank) 2:34.01

1600m
Kim Ruvalcaba took the 1600m title over a talented field and also produced another PR in the process.

Like the 800m, the boys 1600m wasn't much to talk about for local runners.
7. Tristan Edwards (Hughson) 4:53.54

3200m
With Ruvalcaba focusing her efforts on the shorter races, there was definitely a void left in the 3200m for the local girls.

What the girl's race lack in local flavor the boy's race provided.

F/S SHOWCASE
Turlock, Pitman, Downey, Hughson, Riverbank, Denair, Ceres, and Turlock Christian brought their youngsters to the Turlock oval to competed in what was to become a very long week-night meet. Right up front I'll say "sorry guys," I only stayed until just after the 800m races.

DUBLIN DISTANCE FIESTA
Gregori was the only local team competing in this one of the premier distance meets in California.
As it was the Jaguars only ran in the Distance Med Relay. The Gregori quartet finished a very impressive 2nd place in what was a tight 2nd-7th pack. Their splits clock in at:
1200-Jonathan Alcantara 3:18
400-Anthony Cristobal 52
800-Adrian Leal 2:08
1600-Mario Medina 4:40

10:57.19

I was told that Mario out-leaned the other teams for the second place showing.

RESULTS

MMC DUALS
Although I don't think there were really any distance marks of serious note, I did attend the Downey v Beyer meet and took photos.
