Arianna Lambie (Bromfield School and Stanford) continued her impressive collegiate career by taking first in the NCAA West Regional XC meet at Palo Alto, CA.  Stanford placed all 5 scorers in the top 10 to easily advance to the NCAA Championship November 21 in Indiana. And, all five scorers are underclassmen. Oh boy.

In the Great Lakes Regional at Indiana University, Victor Gras (Belmont HS '04 and Michigan) placed 57th overall.  Victor was the 2004 State mile champ, and holds the meet record.   Victor was 4th man for the 8th place Michigan squad. Maybe next year: Michigan's top 5 has only one Senior, 2 Freshman, 2 sophomores.
