ILH Cross Country: First Practice Meet – Waipio

There are no official results for this meet, although it looked like every
team was doing their own recordkeeping!
 
There were 5 races run today – intermediate girls, intermediate boys, open
girls, varsity girls and a combined JV/Varsity boys race. The crowd was loud and
big. The weather was good, partly cloudy, a bit too humid, but not bad for the
first race of the season.
 
Although it’s hard to learn a lot in such an early practice meet, there
were two messages sent loud and clear in the varsity races.
 
First, in the varsity girls division, Julie Besenbruch won in a time of
about 19:30 (if I heard correctly). Julie ran smoothly and looked very strong
after her time off last year. She’s definitely back and should certainly be
placed at the top or close to the top of the early season state rankings.
 
On the boys varsity side, Matt Nakamoto picked up where he left off last
year winning by a big margin so he showed he’s ready to defend his ILH
championship.
 
Congratulations to the 5 winners pictured below!
