Race Recap: 

This past weekend we had a chance to run at the Air Academy Invite. This meet also served as the PPAC conference meet, so we were racing against many teams who were starting their championship season!

Girls varsity got things started with a 9th place finish, led by Caroline Mello's 10th place individual finish. Caroline also posted the first ever sub 20 performance on the Air Academy course in school history! The duo of Teagan Van Slyke and Sophia Wyatt moved up well in the race and collected 54th and 80th place finishes respectively. 

Current Scott led the way for the boys with his 42nd place individual finish. Tyson Graham and Lukas Wendell came barreling in at 56th and 64th to lead the boys to a 14 place finish overall. 

Lilly Nolen, Norah Henson, and Savannah Kish represented the girls open squad, and each ran one of, if not their best races of the season! Those 3 finished 73rd, 105th, and 144th respectively. The boys open squad posted a 6th place finish, the best of the day. They were led by Luke Ashford's 21st place finish, followed closely by John Cowan in 30th and Jax Hartley in 44th. 

It's now the week of Leagues. Let's get ready to compete!!!

Sabercats,

We hope you all had an enjoyable and restful Thanksgiving holiday. In this post we are outlining everything you need to know about the next few months of running. Please read this in its entirety and reach out to coaches about any questions you have. 

Running Plan

After the season is over we take a 2 week break from running. As a team that trains year round, we take our rest as serious as our running. These two weeks are essential for avoiding mental and physical burnout, and feeling rejuvenated to start the winter track season. 

For those who stopped running at NXR you can resume training on Monday, December 4th. For those who ran through the Turkey Trot you'd restart on the 8th. 

If you feel like you need more than 2 weeks, please communicate with a coach so we can plan accordingly. 

We will not be meeting formally as a group for the month of December. However, if you are planning on doing winter track you should be running on your own. We have posted all of December training, and captains will organize after school runs. Coaches will be around informally some days to run with the team as well. 

If you are playing a winter sport but want to continue on a modified training schedule, please reach out to a coach and we'll work with you on an individual plan.

December Training

Here's the doc with all of the training for the month of December: December Training Doc

There's only one group for training, but the daily range of mileage is pretty big. If you end up being less consistent over this month, don't jump back in the big runs right away. Work yourself back up gradually with the lower end of the mileage ranges. 

Winter Training

Be on the lookout for an email with all of the winter training/indoor track information in the next week. The Sabercat Track Club website will also have all of the information and more.

NXR Singlets

You have two options for these singlets.

• Option #1: Return the singlet to Coach Lyons​
• Option #2: Purchase the singlet. We will be using this singlet for the indoor track season, any other non CV sponsored races, and possibly NXR next year. Cost is $30 (cash or check - Sabercat Track Club) and can be given to Coach Lyons.

**Please return or purchase the singlet by Monday, December 18th**

​
What an incredible way to end the official season. For all the athletes and parents who came down to support those racing, thank you very much! It was incredible to see so many members from the Sabercat XC Family at State.

Let's recap the day.

With the honor of unveiling our new uniforms, the girls took to the course first. Showing our preparation and commitment to the race plan, the girls stayed disciplined the first mile considering the very fast opening mile. Running for each other over the last two miles, the girls took care of business and finished with the best placement in school history - 11th. Starting off the scoring was Neev Lev receiving All-State Honorable Mention status (just one place outside of 2nd Team) in 15th place with Ciara Baker in 45th, Ava King in 82nd, Sloan Wilson in 90th, Reese Plummer in 105th, Caroline Mello in 111th, and Viv Mann in 127th. A fantastic end to an impressive season!

The boys took to the course as the last race of the day. These 7 boys put on a masterclass for how to run the State course. With a team score of 19th at the 1 mile, many probably stopped paying attention to any Castle View runner. These doubters would be proven quite wrong as over the next 2 miles the boys would work there way up to 9th place as a team (they were still only in 15th place at the 2 mile!). Starting off the wave of red stripped white singlets was Christian Alley (35th) followed by Luke Bartunek in 48th, Nathaniel Bartunek in 65th, Jacob Kinne in 67th, Liam Kissell in 76th, Matthew Higgs in 84th, and Rylan Frueh in 98th.

Both the Girls and Boys teams left Norris Penrose knowing they gave everything they could. What a great season!

Sabercats!,

First off, a BIG Thank You! to all the athletes and parents who came down on Thursday to cheer on those racing Regionals. I know it means a lot to have such great support.

Regionals is a race that can have two different meanings depending on the type of team. For many, it is likely the last race of the season and you hope to advance to State. For a select few teams, Regionals is just a step along the way to State. The boys and Girls squads firmly supplanted themselves amongst this select group of teams who expect to race the last Saturday in October.

Taking to the historic MVP course first was the Boys team. Showing their patience over the first mile, the Boys took care of business the last 2.1 miles and walked away with a strong 3rd place finish. Christian Alley Started the scoring with a 5th place finish and an individual State Qualifying spot along with Luke Bartunek in 13th place. Showing our great depth, we put 6 runners in the top 30 (Nathaniel Bartunek in 19th, Liam Kissell in 24th, Matthew Higgs in 25th, and Jacob Kinne in 28th). For those with an eye on the future, things certainly look good as we were the first team with all 9 runners across the line thanks to the Sophomore trio of Jacob Gibbs (41st), Noah Morine (43rd), and Rylan Frueh (44th).

Next up was the Girls Team. With a similar business like demeanor the Girls easily qualified for State in the 3rd spot. Again we had two athletes in individual qualifying positions as Neev Lev was 8th followed closely by Ciara Baker in 13th. Ava King (20th), Reese Plummer (23rd), and Caroline Mello (27th) closed out the scoring positions all in the top 30. Viv Mann (34th), Sloan Wilson (37th), Teagan Van Slyke (53rd), and Ashley Reuer (60th) made sure we were the second team to have all 9 runners across the line!

What an incredible League meet we had on Thursday! The boys JV and Open teams had program best finishes, while the Girls Varsity and JV teams matched program best finishes.

The first race of the day was Boys Varsity, who placed 6th (not bad considering two of the teams in front of them are nationally ranked). Christian Alley started off the scoring with a 2nd Team All League 8th place followed by Luke Bartunek in 22nd Nathaniel Bartunek in 24th, Jacob Kinne in 29th, Liam Kissell in 37th, Rylan Frueh in 40th, and Noah Morine in 44th.

The Girls Varsity was next up on the course and they certainly delivered with a 2nd place finish (behind the number 4 team in the country!). Starting off the scoring with two All League Performances was Neev Lev in 4th (1st Team) and Ciara Baker in 8th (2nd Team) followed by Caroline Mello in 20th, Reese Plummer in 22nd, Ava King in 24th, Sloan Wilson in 26th, and Vivian Mann in 39th.

In the first history making race of the afternoon, the JV Boys put on a clinic finish 1st in truly dominant fashion with 6 of our 7 runners finishing in the top 20. Starting oiff scoring was Jacob Gibbs in 3rd followed closely by Matthew Higgs in 4th, Alex Legorreta in 7th, Blake Royer in 11th, Jenner Davis in 12th, Kaleb Kolbe in 16th, and Curren Scott in 28th.

Next up on the course we had the Girls JV and they continued to put on an impressive display of the CV XC depth with a 2nd place finish. Starting off scoring was Claire Enger in 11th, closely followed by Ashley Reuer in 12th, Teagan Van Slyke in 14th, Julie Rickerd in 19th, Ayden Garvin in 20th, and Sienna Mandrioli in 50th.

The final race of the day proved to be the most dominant performance by CV XC as the Open Boys claimed another 1st place finish. Around 800m in Austin Zenyuh decided he wanted to run alone, making a decisive move into first and never relinquishing this position over the remaining 2.6 miles. Ensuring our dominance, Mason Bussie crossed the line in 3rd followed by Alex Gillies in 6th, Chase Dowis in 10th, Lukas Wendell in 14th, Jonathan Cowan in 16th, Kendall Chestnut in 31st, Oscar Lopez in 34th, Breck Chesney in 39th, Phineas Morton in 40th, Colton Thompson in 100th, and Justin Kish in 129th

We have finally arrived at Leagues Week. This is a really big week for our team as we are looking to put a stamp on this season with historically high team finishes for all three levels (Varsity, JV, and Open). But first, check out the recap of Pat Amato below:

Boys JV kicked things off with a bang as Alex Legoretta and Curren Scott led the boys to a 3rd place finish with a pair of top 10 finishes. Sienna Mandrioli was the lone racer in the girl's JV, where she had a major breakthrough and a 52nd place finish.

The boy's varsity squad placed 3rd thanks to Christian Alley's top 10 finish and a hard charging quartet of Rylan Frueh, Noah Morine, Matthew Higgs, and Jacob Gibbs. Ava King was the top finisher for the girl's squad that placed 16th. Teegan Van Slyke, Ashley Reuer, Claire Enger, and Julie Rickerd rounded out the scoring for the ladies.
