XC Success: St. Andrews Invitational

Sep 11, 2017

This past Saturday at the St. Andrews XC Invitational, the sun was shining on our teams as they brought home 2nd overall Varsity and first overall JV.
Varsity boys team leader Kobe Yepez battled out a solid 2nd overall finish to help secure our boys varsity team 2nd overall. The breakaway group he finished in led the race, all taking turns pushing the pace and were almost 20 seconds off the front for the entire last mile. As you can see by perusing the results below, the 2nd overall was a team effort with most of the boys achieving personal records (PR) on a tough 5k course. Jacob Reynolds also took a medal finishing 14th overall.
The JV boys team was led to an overall win by a solo charge off the front of the pack by our very own Dominic Vargas.  He threw down a Herculean effort leaving the leaders to chase and time trialed in to break the tape 9 seconds ahead of the next finisher.  Following Dominic in a definitive pack were Ruben Estrada (7th), Theo Phocas (8th), Blake Belisle (12th), Ethan Cummings (13th), Spencer Phelps (14th), Joseph Bjarnason (15th) and Matt Chimmitt (16th).
