CROSS COUNTRY: GOLDEN WEST INVITE

Fullerton fared well at the Golden West Invitational held on Friday at Central Park in Huntington Beach.

For the Lady Hornets, the team placed 10th out of 15 teams with Fanny Giron serving as the FC team leader taking 40th overall out of 144 runners with a finishing time of 20:27.5. Right behind Giron was Alethea Streeter who placed 42nd with a time of 20:32.4. There was a five second gap between the two ladies.

 "It was a descent 1-2 performance with these ladies. The work will need to come with our third, fourth and fifth girls competing closer with each other. A couple more races will help us improve with this goal, Head Coach Gina Bevec.

The team champion on the day was Glendale College who collectively ran a total time of 1:34:30.30. The individual champion was Laura Aceves of East Los Angeles College with a time of 18:05.1.
