Kingsburg Gun Club–Oct. 27
FC ran the Kingsburg Gun Club this week, Oct. 7. All the runners ran on the 3 mile course that expanded over dirt road and grass.
Sophomore John Agao feels that the course had its ups and downs, but was an overall good experience for the racers.
“The first mile was very dusty and boring,” Agao said. “But the other two miles were nice because we saw all the people cheering us on. It was also cool because at one point we were running on shotgun shells.”
The first race of the day was the frosh/soph boys race and the Eagles had three runners participating in the event. Leading the Eagles was Daniel Moore, ’14, coming in at 90th out of 199 runners and a time of 20:43.
A second behind Moore, with a time of 20:44, was Tyler Laird, ’14, coming in at 91st place. Finishing off the Eagles was sophomore Jon Agao coming at 149 out of 199 with a time of 23:30.
Running the freshman/sophomore girls race was Sophomore Aliciana Quintana. Times and places were not kept for this race due to an error by the races officiators.
The Eagles next meet will be the California Interscholastic Federation Central Section Finals on Nov. 10.
