Sade Bumps delivered an outstanding performance at the Haystack Tune-Up as preparation for the CIF North Coast Section Championships next month. Bumpus ran 17:56 on this course last year at the CIF NCS Championships, but last weekend she achieved a huge PR of 17:15 to win the race.

Josephine Krulick was the top California girl at the Flat SAC Invitational, finishing with a time of 18:06 to win the Small School Varsity Girls race. This marks the continuation of a breakout sophomore season, during which she stays undefeated after five races.
