Lightning Cross-Country Races to Strong Season Finish
The Live Oak cross country team traveled to Golden Gate Park on a beautiful day this past Monday 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 7th/8th grade girls got off to a fast start and placed three runners in the top ten: Evelyn (1st), Sachi (8th), and Mia (9th). Kenji and Hamilton kept it going for Live Oak by placing second and ninth in the 7th/8th grade boys race. The 7th/8th girls placed third and the 7th/8th boys placed fourth overall out of twelve schools in the team standings.
Anna (5th), Camellia (6th), and Lillian (9th) all placed in the top ten in the 5th/6th girls division which helped the 5th/6th girls finish second overall in the team standings. Last but not least, Lake, Jack, Arin, Dominic and Cooper capped off an impressive season by leading the Live Oak team to fourth place in a competitive 5th/6th boys division.
The cross country team improved each and every meet and supported each other throughout, which made the season a memorable one. Congratulations to the Live Oak runners, coaches Carlos, Caroline, Neil and Wil, and all the parents who made the season a success this year!
