Pulford Rolls, Leads Squad to Division III Title; Campo Harriers Post Second Best Team Time of the Day at Stanford

With five finishers in the top 28, and all seven in the top 42, the Campolindo varsity boys' squad went "all in" at the 2008 edition of the Stanford Invitational. The solid early season effort was good enough to top the field in the Division III race, and second best on the day. Robert Pulford (09) continued to lead the Cougars with a runner up finish in 15:42, while Ross Geiger (09) and Michael Brondello (09) finished 10th and 15th respectively to bolster the team score.

Averaging 16:19 on the 5k course around the Stanford greens, the varsity top seven finished with 75 points, 31 ahead of Oak Park and University City, whose 106 point tie for second was broken by Oak Park's 6th man.

The junior varsity boys' team, also running the 5k distance, managed a solid 4th place, with Jared Wong (09) and Douglas Chudler (10) finishing among the top 20.

Three Against One: Boys Top Combined Efforts of Rivals in Tough Conditions

Yet again, the late summer heat made conditions for Friday's first competition daunting as nearly 90 Cougar Cross Country harriers tackled the Hidden Valley course; the Boys' impressive route of their familiar opponents was nothing less than astounding. In fact, the loaded Campolindo squad managed to edge out the combined efforts of Acalanes, Alhambra and College Park in both the Rookie and Veteran divisions. A hypothetical scoring of the Rookie Boys would have the blue and red earning 27 while the combined score of the three other schools tallied 28. In the veteran race, the Cougars scored a perfect 15.
