Pre-Section Finals Top 10 individuals per division in the state:
Division 2: 1. Aelo Curtis (Ventura): 154 (Clovis) 2. Summer Wilson (Irvine): 150 (Woodbridge) 3. Amaya Bharadwaj (Palo Alto): 148 (Clovis) 4. Isla Bulmer (Claremont): 139 (Clovis) 5. Sophie Hutchinson (Whitney): 134 (Roughrider) 6. Olivia Campos (Mt Carmel): 133 (Woodbridge) 7. Brenna Mannion (Vista Del Lago): 132 (Clovis) 8. Sydney Middleton (Redwood NCS): 132 (Clovis) 9. Sabina Cruz (Westlake): 132 (Mt Sac): 10. Arielle Avina (Murrieta Valley): 131 (Woodbridge) Note: Will also be a pretty quick and competitive race (more on the individual side). Natalie Arriaza has a speed rating of 135 from Kim Duyst but has not raced in a while. She raced at league but was not at sub-sections so she’s out of the rankings.
If you think that Sabina Cruz will be 9th in Division 2, then her twin sister Anais should be able to finish a few spots higher. When Anais is healthy she usually beats Sabina by 10 or 15 seconds.
Anais Cruz (Westlake) just beat her twin sister Sabina by 13 seconds. Better revise your predictions and put Anais Cruz in your top 10.
El Toro is still my dark horse pick for NxN. They have not had one race this year that they all ran well or had all their runners.
They looked good this past Saturday, but Danaher did not run. They have 2 races to put it all together.
Hoping they have a Jason Parra type ending to their season. A couple of years ago he didn't perform well until state finals. He was the D-1 state champ, got an at-large entry to NxN and finished 8th.

So you think the team that hasn't been able to put it all together all year will be able to put it all together at State?
It's pretty interesting how CIF works. The winners of D2 State can move down a division the next year. It's enrollment based and I understand that and it's not up to the school but you would think they would have some kind of rule that prevents that type of move like some Sections have.
