Our YLHS Mustangs competed against the “best of the best” Saturday at CIF Southern Section Finals at Mt. SAC and clocked thrilling performances that qualified them for State! Isabella Wroblewski, Olivia Reed, Brooke Boyd, Penelope Fournier, Danela Felix, Mackenzie Dalton and Emily Maurer scored fifth as a team in the Girls D3 race. Junior Toren Habbestad passed two other runners at the last second to secure the fifth and final individual qualifying spot for advancement. As a result of their tremendous efforts, these athletes will compete this Saturday at CIF State Championships in Fresno. This will be the third year in a row that the girls team has competed at state, while it’s the first time in YLHS history that a member of the XC boy’s team will attend.
Team rankings released November 22, 2024 listed our girls team 8th among state-wide D3 teams. Way to go, ladies! What a strong finish to the season!
Athletes, coaches and parents will drive to Fresno this Friday for Saturday morning’s state-wide competition at Woodward Park. Best wishes, Mustangs, and safe travels!!
