Girls Team First in League and First in Conference; Isabella Wroblewski and Toren Habbestad First Overall in Varsity Races

Even with race times switched to morning instead of afternoon, all runners at the Century Conference Finals on Wednesday, October 29, 2025, faced high heat and dry breezes. Our Mustang men and women pushed through for some impressive times.

Our Lady Mustangs posted incredible finishes, with Junior Isabella Wroblewski scoring 1^st place in the girls varsity contest, followed by two top-10 finishers, Junior Savannah Gonzalez in 7^th place and Freshman Brooke Habbestad in 10^th place, along with Junior Camille Ta-Perez, Senior Brooke Boyd, Sophomore Sydney Van Stralen, and Senior Lorelai Pohl. Both Lorelai and Sydney PRd in this race–well done!

The YLHS Girls Varsity Team placed 1^st in the Crestview League as well as 1^st place in the 15-school Century Conference! Congratulations, ladies! They also advanced as a team to CIF Prelims in two weeks on Saturday, November 15.

Senior Michael Kowalyshyn finished in 16:13 and gained a spot on the All-League Second Team for the Crestview League. He was followed by Junior Rio Maldonado, Freshman Armani Aguirre, Senior Ryan Olivas, and Sophomore Carlos Barry. Congratulations, guys!
