Belvidere Central Invite Champs!
September 10, 2011
For the second year in a row Yorkville Middle School is the overall champion of the Belvidere Central Invite. This year was even better than last year. Even though the weather was hot our times were faster, there were more PRs, and we came away with a trophy in every race!
The 7th grade girls finished 3rd and were led by Nicole Doles in 5th with a time of 14:12, which set our team record at Belvidere. Nicole was followed by Julia Megazzini in 6th with 14:15, Maddie Dearborn in 8th with 14:17, Brooke Jensen in 14th with 15:02, and Jessica Lizzio in 52nd with 17:07.
The 7th grade boys proved that a team can do well even if the individuals do not finish high in the standings Alexx Nauman was the only medal winner and finished in 2nd with a team-record time of 12:18, but a strong pack helped secure a 2nd place finish. Jacob Love finished in 13th with 13:30, Westley Lavaud in 14th with 13:31, Triston Robb in 15th with 13:32, and Dawson Diederich in 31st with 14:02.
The 8th grade girls continued to showcase their superb pack running and came away with a dominant victory. Erin Reynolds led the way with a victory in the race with a time of 13:04 that beat our team record by over a minute followed by Gianna Salzbrunn in 3rd with a 13:16, Julia Schultz in 4th with 13:28, Rebecca Jasutis in 5th with 13:33, and Clarissa Perez in 12th with 15:21.
Finally, the 8th grade boys squeaked past Rockford Christian to take home another 1st place trophy. Good kicks by Kevin Humphreys and Jimmy Kammer helped make the difference in the race. Cody Hornyak led the way in 4th place with a time of 12:04 followed by Ryan Cyr in 8th with 12:39, Thor Hester in 10th with 12:44, Kevin Humphreys in 13th wtih 13:07, and Jimmy Kammer in 18th with 13:18.

i Thought this was worth sharing. its on a tshirt 10 ways you know you are a xc runner; 1.people say "you run 3 miles??? all at once?" 2. All of your socks are stained or torn 3. You have running withdrawl if you dont run everyday. 4. you can eat your weight in spaghetti 5. your calves are bigger than your biceps 6. you are even running in your dreams 7. you feel lost with your waterbottle 8. Track is the "other" sport 9. you need a magnifying glass to see your name in the paper 10. you can maintain a 5:30 pace while throwing up also, great job at belvidere everyone!!!
