Comments about athlete’s performance (include place, time, improvement, etc):

In his first collegiate cross country meet, Emmanuel Contreras earned his first collegiate cross country victory. Contreras overcame a 20 plus second deficit after two miles to eventually pull away and win the race. His individual performance helped to lead the Trojan men who finished first in team scoring at the Clark Invitational.

Another coach wrote “Ran a smart race and a good time this early while in wet and rainy conditions.”

Congratulations Emmanuel!
