 The annual Brea-Olinda High School alumni run is this Saturday, 7/26/2014, at Olinda Ranch. The run is a head-to-head competition among the current BOHS athletes and their predecessors. We use traditional cross country scoring where the aggregate score of top 5 athletes score for each team (1st place earns 1 point, 19th place earns 19 points, low score wins). Last year on the boys side the current athletes edged out the alumni 28-27 and current girls won 314-376. Parents, siblings, neighbors and complete strangers are encouraged to come support our athletes and alumni. Athletes are asked to arrive at 7:15 to warm up for the 8:00 a.m. race start time. Immediately after the run we will have snacks and time to mengle. The last order of the day are the inductions to the BOHS XC Hall of Fame. Inductees are nominated throughout the year and are given this prestigious honor for the hard work and dedication they have contributed to our program.
Typically the top 12 athletes from the Alumni Run are invited to our summer camp which will be held in Mammoth Ca. from 8/12-16. It's important to note that if you finish in the top 12 this doesn't mean that you automatically earn a spot to camp. When determining who attends camp Coach Mattern, Rainwater and Wiley make the final decision. We take into consideration attendance, attitude, performance and durability. The base of Mammoth is 7,800ft and the girls will be running around 55-60 miles while gone, the boys will be running more. More information will be posted next week. On a separate note, Wednesday July 30th A Snail's Pace is hosting its annual XC night. They give athletes 10% off and also donate an additional 10% of sales from BOHS athletes to the program. This is a great opportunity to get a great deal on training and racing shoes. Lastly, if you haven't made your summer donation please do so. You're not required to donate to participate in the summer program however if you have the means it is greatly appreciated. If you have given the suggested donation of $150 we are grateful for your contribution that allows the summer program to exist. 2013 Alumni Run Results Brea Olinda HS Cross Country Hall of Fame Coach Daniel King 1987-1996 Michael Case – class of 1996 Michelle DiMeo – class of 2002 Michael Schumacher – class of 2001 Michele Thune – class of 1998 Shawn Sinclair – class of 1985 Carl Daucher – class of 1994 Kelly Daucher – class of 1994 Brent Jones – class of 1988 Teresa Chunovich – class of 1988 Brett Vaughn – class of 1981 Jeff Sokol – class of 1990 Anne Gustafson – class of 2005 Matt Rainwater – class of 1999 Lutz Braun – class of 1998 Mariko Tokoyoda – class of 1995 Kathy Sepulveda – class of 2003 Patrick Derry – class of 2002 Daniel DiMeo – class of 2004 Jenny Thune – class of 2001 Meghan O’Malley – class of 2003 Sean April – class of 2004 Michael Cortez – class of 1997 Coach Pamela Valenti 1990-2005 Dena Bloomfield - class of 1991 Katie Bottomley - class of 2003 Michael Solis – class of 1997 Justin Curley – class of 1991 Coach Jeremy Mattern 2000- Vanessa Hancock - class of 2008 Matthew Moulson - class of 2005 Comments are closed.
