FRI 10/16 ROUGH RIDER INV @ Woodward Park, Fresno
The competing South SJS teams were Central Catholic, Enochs, Gregori, Lathrop,  Mountain House, Oakdale, Orestimba, Pitman, Riverbank, Sierra, and Turlock. All races were 5K. The temperature was certainly a factor. At 90 (and I think it felt even warmer) many runners were suffering especially compared to the conditions at the Clovis Inv one week ago. The Large School Division was schools with an enrollment of 1700 or larger. It was clear to me that Oakdale ran this meet as a workout so I wouldn't read too much into their times.
