Cross Country Sweeps Finals
The Live Oak cross country team traveled to Golden Gate Park on a beautiful day last Thursday to take part in the league finals at Hellman Hollow. The Lightning ran fast during the 1.5 mile course that started in Hellman Hollow Meadow and looped around the Upper Polo Field track. The 5th/6th grade girls got off to a fast start and placed four runners in the top ten (Shoshi (1st), Isabel (3rd), Chloe (5th) and Eve (8th) on their way to winning the team title. Tavis and Kai R. kept it going for Live Oak by placing first and second in the 5th/6th grade boys race. Owen also placed in the top ten, leading the way for Live Oak to another team title. Genevieve, Emma, Amelia, Ailey and Lily all placed in the top ten in the 7th/8th girls division to help take the team title. Last but not least, Tao capped off an impressive season by placing first in a competitive 7th/8th boys division. Everett, Nate and Wheeler all placed in the top ten to help Live Oak win all of the four possible team titles. Click here to see the full results.
