"Will the Lady Cougars improve from their 2004 third place run?"

"Will Campo boys reload and put 3 in the top 8 again,
defending their NCS title from 2003 & 2004? Three-peat??"
3peat!
Led by Senior Chris Vizcaino the Cougar boys had a THREE-PEAT! Winning their 3rd NCS title in 3 years with a great run at NCS. Chris finished second to Ben Gutierrez (Bishop O’Dowd). Ben ran the fastest time of the day (of all 5 divisions) at 15:12 while Chris threatened his school record of 15:19 (’04) with a very fast 15:24, the third fastest time of the day (all divisions). All races were 3 miles.
Dynamic Duo Roll- --Finnegan Crushes School Record!
Laurie Finnegan (5th 18:17) and Sparky Murillo (6th 18:31) led the Cougars to yet another state meet birth with an excellent 2nd place finish to Miramonte in the fiercely competitive Division III girl’s battle. Only a sophomore, Laurie crushed the school record of 18:48 set in 2002 by NCS champion Vera Ross. In a total of 5 divisions (based on school size), the locals showed us all how tough the DFAL is! Miramonte girls had the fastest team time (top 5 runners total time) of the day and Campolindo had the 2nd fastest team time of the day among 70 schools in the entire NCS! Should be a great battle at state!
