Winning all their league meets, the girls cross country team never looked back after . . . irst year coach, Frank Bautista felt that the girls' cross country season went well. We were able to attain our first two goals which were to win the Mount Hamilton Athletic League (M.H.A.L.) title and go undefeated in duel meet competition and also place high in the C.C.S. championships.” The Saints began preparation in early July by running distance. As the summer progressed, they incorporated hill work and distance into their workout. The girls averaged anywhere between twenty and forty miles a week. It was hard work but making it to CCS finals made it all seem worth it, stated Laura Jenkins when she remembered the training she had to go through before the season began. The hard work paid off as the Saints dominated the M.H.A.L. by placing five girls on the All League team and placing seven girls in the top twenty. The Saints then went on to win the CCS Divi- sional qualifying in meet by out scoring Fremont, one of the stronger teams in the CCS. The season was capped by a fourth place in the CCS Championships. The Saints were led all season by most valuable player Evie Barry. Her season included the individual league title, an all-CCS selection for the second straight year, and a spot in the first-ever California State Cross Country Champion- ships. Having outstanding seasons, which included all league honors, were Kristina Berquist, Cathy Bailey, Keri Sanchez, and Kama Sooy. These athletes along with Laura Jenkins, Shiela Dayog, Karrie Strohman, and Katie Rupprecht helped the saints have their greatest season ever. The com- piled time in the league meet was the best ever in the M.H.A.L. Next year, the goal for the Saints will be the state finals as sixth of the top seven runners will be returning.
