THUR 4/3 CCAL 2 @ Gregori HS, Modesto
The competing StanCo teams were Downey, Modesto, Enochs, Gregori, Pitman, and Turlock . The problem with these meets is that it is already obvious that Turlock will win the league. Which defeats the purpose of even having the meet. So many of the top runners either didn't run or didn't run very hard. An illustration of the point is that the top 3 F/S boys would have gone 1-2-3 in the VB 1600...because that race was simply a jog-fest. Don't get me wrong, I don't blame them, but from a competition point of view the CCAL clusters are meaningless

Those Amazingly Fast StanCo Ladies


One of the best things for me about covering Stanislaus County distance running is when individuals reach a level in an event that places them on one of the all-time lists. When that happens I know that I have witnessed something extraordinary. On the boys side there were some incredible marks produced over the past several years (mostly by Oakdale runners). But this post is about the remarkable ladies.
 
Previously, there had been a few years when one or two top girls had attacked the record book, but just before the shut down (2018-2019) there were four. Gregori's Briseida Garcia ranks #3 in the 1600 (4:56.15) and the 800 (2:12.01). Madison Kackley, also of Gregori ranks #2 in the 3200 (10:39.35) and #6 in the 1600 (4:58.52). Pitman's Mavleen Mann is #6 in the 3200 (10:55.98) and #8 in the 1600 (5:00.06). As if those three weren't enough, Oakdale's Kayden Legan ran 11:10.98 to rank #20 in the 3200. I might have said that this year (2018-19) was the pinnacle of StanCo distance running for the ladies...well that is until this year...
 
The 24-25 running year is working up to be remarkable. Over a 6 day span, Giselle Fernandez (Riverbank) produced a 4:55.51 in the 1600, which ranks as #2 all time AND a 10:45.13 in the 3200 which is the #3 mark. WOW! Additionally Patterson's Natalie Arriaza has run 5:06.92 (#18) and 10:46.42 which is #4 all time. Zoe Leach (Downey), who is the lone senior in this group, has run 5:09.13 in the 1600 (#22) and 11:00.89 in the 3200 (#9). AND THERE IS MORE...Turlock's super-frosh Elle Williams is racing up the list already having run 11:01.60 in the 3200 (#10) and 5:17.62 in the 1600. Avery Carlson of Pitman is finding her own blazing stride at 5:07.86 in the 1600 (#19) and 11:07.97 in the 3200 (#13)...That is five ladies currently climbing the all time lists, and the meat of the season has yet to arrive. The one unfortunate side-note is that, other than the three CCAL ladies, these girls rarely race head to head against each other. Even at this year's County meet, only 3 of the 5 raced. Although those three did all run the 1600, and it was an amazing battle, the other two sat out the meet entirely. 
 

Yet to come are Stanford, SMOC, Arcadia, league championships, divisionals, masters, and State. I am certain that these girls will be in the mix and more fast times are on the horizon. The anticipation of those races makes some of my long hours at those meets more than worthwhile. Viva La StanCo Senoritas. Go Ladies Go!

2025 TRACK Week 5 (SAL 2, Duals, County Clash, Madera Classic, Central Valley Classic, Castro Valley Relays)

Turlock baled out of the County Clash meet (greatly reducing the fire power of the StanCo distance contingent).  However they ran the next day with some better weather conditions and produced some quality times. The big mark of the week came from Riverbank's Giselle Fernandez who nearly lapped the field in rout to a 3200 time of 10:45 at County Clash. That mark is #3 all time added to last week's 1600 time which was #2 all time, certainly pads Ms Fernandez's running resume.

WED 3/12/25 Grace Davis, Lathrop at Livingston @ Livingston HS, Livingston
The competing StanCo team was Grace Davis. Like the Ceres meet the weather was wet and windy. I was told that the Lathrop coach complained that the conditions were unsafe and the meet should be canceled. Both Lathrop and GD both left the meet after the 400s. So what you are seeing are incomplete results. It is currently up in the air as to whether GD and Lathrop will have to forfeit since they chose not to compete or the meet will be rescheduled.

2025 Track Week 2 (County, Timberwolf, Wolf Pack Relays)

The Stanislaus County meet was the highlight of the week. The times and number of PRs attained was incredible. Five more runners earned a StanCo shirt...that keeps me busy running all over the county.
