GIRLS INDIVIDUALS
As dominant as Jacob Stanford has been, teammate Kristin Fahy has been even more overpowering. No senioritis for Fahy who was the only girl under 15-minutes over 2.75 miles in the Mt. Carmel Invitational and ran 17:08.5 for 5,000 meters to win at Stanford by 17 seconds over a quality field.
But the real test will come at Mt. SAC where Fahy has generally run well and figures to get some a serious push from most of the Southern Section's top runners as the Mavericks will compete in the team sweepstakes.
Remember that Fahy was pretty dominant a year ago but now is running faster times seemingly with less effort.
The way she's running, the move up to Division II should be just another challenge.
When someone is so dominant, it's often easy to miss some other quality performers like Fahy's teammate Jessica Riedman, Sage Creek's dynamic duo of Skyler and Stormy Wallace, Canyon Crest's Carlie Dorostkar who can actually point to a victory over Fahy in a league cluster meet, and Westview sophomore Trang Woolridge.
Two of the section's top runners are in the smaller school divisions as Coronado's Teresa Perez (Division IV) and El Cajon Christian's Alaina Zamorano (D-V) continue to improve.
