2006 Suburban League Finals

Posted by Ralph Casas at Oct 31, 2006 4:00PM PST ( 0 Comments )

2006 Suburban League Finals -- November 1, 2006
Boys moving up the ladder of success; Girls keep their streak alive with #6
A last minute change in location from Carbon Canyon Regional Park forced the Suburban League teams to compete at La Mirada Regional Park for the annual league finals meet. Learning the course on the day of the race seemed to make little difference to the many athletes who earned new PRs.

As usual, the JV girls race was the first of the day. A short-handed La Mirada JV girls team was unable to overcome the recent spate of illnesses to key athletes. Girls who would normally race with the JV team were moved up to race with the varsity team. A strong 1-2 finish by Tatiana Cortes and Erica Campos on the 3.05 mile course put the Lady Mats in contention for the top spot, was not enough to lift the girls into first place. They finished the 2006 season in 2nd place. Krystal Gomez, Bianca Ceballos, Cedes Vo, Valerie Wong and Daisey Terriquez rounded out the JV team.

Greg Luna was the first Matadore to cross the finish line for the JV boys. He was closely followed by Mateo Cordova. For their efforts, both Greg and Mateo have earned a trip to CIF with the varsity team. In recent years the JV team has not finished higher than 4th place in league. This year they were able to hold on to 3rd place.

In the Varsity girls race, Stephanie Felix opened the gap over the rest of the pack by the first mile and never looked back. Her teammate, Melissa Byrd paced herself well and moved into the 2nd spot just before the end of the 2nd mile. With the 1-2 tandem in place for the Lady Mats the rest of the varsity team did what they needed to ensure their 6th consecutive league title and 72nd consecutive Suburban League victory. Unlike the previous league races, this one started out relatively close. At the end of mile one, the Lady Mats were slightly ahead of the field with 30 points. This changed at mile 2 when senior Jenna Pasillas moved from the 14th spot into the 12th spot and lowered the team score to 28. By the end of the race, Karina Gonzalez and Sarah Jeon found themselves in the 5th and 6th spots to give the team four All-League athletes and a total team score of 25 points. Caitlin Winn and Andrea Smith ran superb races; Caitlin finished in the 14th spot for the team in her first varsity race.

Andrew Bueno continued his recent impressive surge as he narrowly missed a 3rd place finish in the boys varsity race. Michael Palmer, Andrew Garza and Dennis Ly narrowly missed the top 10 but their 11, 12, 13 finish provided the Matadores with a nice 3-pack that propelled the team into 2nd place for the 2006 season. Mark Gillaspy,Vincent Ha and Jason Kim rounded out the scoring for the Matadores. The next step for the varsity runners is the Division II CIF-SS championship race to be held at Mt. SAC on Saturday, November 11.

2006 Season: Week Eight -- Apache Invite

Posted by Ralph Casas at Oct 25, 2006 5:00PM PDT ( 0 Comments )

Arcadia Apache Invitational
Thursday October 26th, 2006 @ Arcadia County Park (SS) 3.0 miles

CR by Stephanie Felix -- 17:23

As a tune up race for Suburban League finals, the Matadores traveled to Arcadia County Park where they competed in a mid-week invitational. In previous years the team used the week before League Finals to do traditional speed workouts; this season the coaches had the team run the race as a workout. The flat 3-mile course and perfect racing conditions provided the opportunity for many Matadores to stretch out their legs and earn new PRs. It certainly boosted confidence levels for many of the young athletes.

The JV girls started out the excitement as Erica Campos and Caitlin Winn not only earned huge PRs but also finished the race in 1st and 2nd place. Bianca Ceballos earned her first top 10 finish in an invitational and also earned a PR, as did Cedes Vo and Valerie Wong. Krystal Gomez, who returned to action after a 2-week hiatus, rounded out the scoring for the JV Lady Mats. Despite their hard work, they were 3 points short of 1st place and instead took home the runner-up award.

The JV boys followed up the girls performance with their own PR party with Jason Kim, Greg Luna, Mateo Cordova, and Adrian Robles earning new PRs. Both Miguel Franco and Andrew Harrick, who rounded out the JV team, raced well and were seconds off new PRs.

The Varsity girls were victors at last year's Apache Invite and hoped to repeat their performance. Running without three of their top seven varsity athletes, they knew they were in for a fight. Right from the start, the one-two tandem of Stephanie Felix and Melissa Byrd were joined by a surprise new face this week as Karina Gonzalez, last season's number two runner at the meet, ran side-by-side with Melissa for almost 2 miles. Unable to keep the pace over the last mile, Karina eventually finished in 7th place with her fastest time of the season. She is now the 2nd fastest Junior on La Mirada's list of elite runners. Stephanie Felix broke her own course record at the race and Melissa Byrd now holds the distinction of being the 2nd fastest La Mirada girl in school history. Her time of 18:40 moved her past alumni Amanda Stephens. Clarissa Negrete, Tatiana Cortes and Andrea Smith rounded out the short-handed Lady Mat team. In the end, the girls found themselves on the short end of a 37 - 38 score and in 2nd place.

In the varsity boys race, Andrew Bueno, Andrew Garza, Michael Palmer, and Vincent Ha all responded to the fast conditions with new and improved PRs. Additionally, each one of them moved up the ladder on the elite list of Matadores. Andrew Bueno, who broke the 16 minute barrier, moves into 4th place on the senior list, ahead of Jared Bird. Andrew Garza and Michael Palmer broke into the 16 minute range and the number 4 and 6 spots on the sophomore list and Vincent Ha moves into the number 9 spot on the freshman list. Dennis Ly and Mark Gillaspy rounded out the Matadores team. The boys finished the race in 7th place.

Next stop for the running Matadores is the Suburban League final cluster meet to be held Wednesday, November 1st.
