in 1st place, and Kylan
Tyng in 6th place at the 2015 Cross Country League
finals

It was a great day for the Owls in the hills of Ojai this week. Isabelle Davenport
set the standard high, winning first place in the girls race in
dominant fashion, securing her first Condor League championship!
Mikey Hawker
and Kylan
Tyng finished out their Condor league careers in
sterling fashion, placing 2nd and 6th respectively. Those
performances led the boys team to a 3rd place finish in the league,
narrowly missing out on 2nd place by just 2 points to Dunn.
Isabelle as an individual and the boys as a team
qualified for CIF Southern Section prelims and will race in Riverside
on November 14.
GO OWLS!
