Roughrider
Invitational RESULTS AT BOTTOM OF PAGE VG Squad Dominates while Kossakowski Wins JV; Fong's PR Keeps VB close in One Point Loss to Piner at Roughrider Brighie Leach (15) hung on for 8th place in the small school division of the Roughrider Invitational on Woodward Park's 5k course, keeping the varsity girls' scoring pack margin within two minutes of their super star front runner, Carrie Verdon (12). In between Leach and Verdon was a solid cluster of Cougars, including Megan McMillan (13), Mary Orders (15) and Rachel Johnson (15), who finished 2nd, 3rd and 5th, respectively. In warm and humid conditions, the team performance bests that of last year's state champions. Also running big were the junior varsity boys, who posted a 36 point total to triumph by 56 points over second place Tranquility. Colin Wong (12), Kevin Gelston (12), Andy VanHeuit (13) and Arman Mostaghimi (12) formed a tight pack at the mile mark, then moved up into the top ten by the finish. Wong topped the eight-second four-man spread, finishing 4th overall. Michael Peterson (15) lead the frosh soph boys to a hotly contested win over league rival Las Lomas. After taking the lead briefly just past the first mile, Peterson finished 2nd. Teammates Isaac Valverde (14), Tyler Takata (14) and Parker Lothamer (15) also cracked the top ten while Kevin Buckley (15) stepped into the #5 position to fend off the feisty Knights. In the junior varsity girls' race, Diana Kossakowski (13) topped her Fresno trip with an individual championship. The veteran junior came through the 800m mark in 5th place before moving up on the leader at the mile, and then taking the lead for good with about 1000m to go. Kevin Fong (13) notched another lifetime best to take over the 5th man position for the varsity boys, though his squad fell to section rival Piner by a point. PHOTO GALLERY FROM TIM FONG HERE!
