SW #1 Los Alamos Girls and Boys win in their home invitational. Weather
42 degrees, occasional light snow. Course: 3.0 miles, elevation 7350
feet, rolling hills. Location:Los AlamosGolf Course.

Girls

#1 Los Alamos NM

Won their home Invitational without the help of #2 Marisa Sandovol,
who sat out due to a lingering cough. Also, Coaches Hipwood report,
" #5/6 Analisa Sandoval also didn't run, resting from a stress fracture�
discovered last Monday in her foot.� Analisa felt some pain in
her foot during the final 200 meters at the Nike/Jim Danner meet.��She
may be cleared to resume running a week from�this coming Monday.�"
Much of the Los Alamos girls started back a few places from where they
finished and moved up in the middle of the race. In the end it looked
as if the Hilltopper girls measured their competition prior to the race
and ran with just enough effort to win decisively. Kristen Hemphill
shot to the front early and was never challenged as she went on the win by :25 seconds.
