CIF Southern Section Prelims 2017

We caught up with Claremont junior Azalea Segura-Mora in advance of the CIF-Southern Section Division II preliminaries at the Riverside Championship Course. Segura-Mora is one of the top runners for the versatile Wolfpack girls team, seeded No. 1 for the prelims and ranked No. 5 nationally in the MileSplit50. Segura-Mora was on the line for Claremont as it won the CIF-State D-II title each of the last two years and also when it made the program's first trip -- boys or girls -- to compete at the Nike Cross Nationals.

The second of two days of the CIF-Southern Section preliminaries produced a course record from Malibu's Claudia Lane as runners and teams jockeyed for qualifying position for the Nov. 18 CIF-SS divisional championships. Here's a recap of the second day of races at the Riverside Championship Course.
