La Mirada High School

Despite competing in their 3^rd race in 6 days, the La Mirada Cross Country teams showed fire in their running. The Varsity girls, led by Seniors Audrey Serrata (21:37) and Vanessa Thomas (21:38), cruised to victory over La Habra and California. The Lady Matadores scored an outstanding 16 points after placing their top 5 runners in the first six spots.

Sophomore Nathaniel Moore ran a brilliant race to take the top spot in the Varsity Boys race. The Matadores, despite placing their top 3 runners in the first five spots (Sophomores Jared Bird, 4^th place, and Daniel Lee, 5^th place), could not overcome the depth of a tight La Habra team and were defeated by a mere four points. La Mirada scored 36 points to California's 53 to come out 1-1 for the day.

In JV action, Sophomore Freddy Ramirez placed 2^nd, while Junior Max Garnica and Freshman Ryan Holash placed 4^th and 5^th to earn Varsity uniforms. They lead their team to victory over California.
