Warner Pacific Open (HS)

Coaching Friends,

Thanks for racing in the 10th Annual Warner Pacific Open "Day of Cross Country"  Your team was a part of the over 700 registered runners to join us.  Franklins HS exchanged a record in the Girl's race (Julia Fonk, '08) for a new record in the Boy's race (Jackson Baker) and traveled back to SE Portland with 2 team trophies.  Portland Lutheran lost a Boy's individual meet record (Abel Araya '08) but took home a first place team award.   Our new record holder for the girls is Rebecca Anna from SW Christian.

Even though Westmoreland Park is "board flat" it does not run-out as fast as people expect which seems to uphold my old addage that  "It is the amount of DOWNHILL running that determines the speed of an accurately measured XC Course."

There is a good chance that we will move back to Lents Park in 2011 anticpating Warner Pacific's hosting of the 2012 Cascade Collegiate Conference Cross Country Championships on the same course we used in 2004.  Watch for further details - and best of luck to your team during the Championships Weeks ahead.

In the Race,
Dave Lee, Meet Director
