Unexpected challenges couldn't stop the Buchanan girls while the SLO boys closed strong to turn disappointment at the CS Final into pure joy at State.

CORRECTED: Sydney Sundgren leads Buchanan girls, Sanger doubles up in D-II, Chris Caudillo and Madera South take D-I boys titles.

Lauren Fowler and Buchanan, Jeremiah Walker and Central collect gold medals and CIF-CS Masters team titles.
