Miramonte had a successful run at the DFAL championships at Hidden Valley Park in Martinez. Senior Tyler Hanson broke the three-mile course record, finishing in 15:18. The varsity boys' team finished third overall and the varsity girls finished fourth.
Both teams advanced to the NCS championships.
Despite the worst conditions in years, Miramonte shined at the NCS championships at Hayward High School. The Nov. 17 races involved warming up in pouring rain, sliding on mud, and falling in puddles.
All of the Miramonte girls performed well against the toughest competition, finishing sixth overall. Acalanes finished first and Campolindo finished fourth.
The boys ran later in the day. Three boys finished in the top 10. Hanson led the way with a third place finish. The top finishes helped secure a first place finish for the boys. Miramonte boys' cross country has not won an NCS Championship since 2001.
Acalanes boys finished second and Campolindo boys finished fourth.
