The young Eagle runners stole the day at the Pacific Tiger Invitational at the University of the Pacific on Saturday. The frosh-soph girls team, led by the race winner Anna Weirich, grade 10, trophied with a third place finish out of 42 teams. Sophomores Aditya Singhvi and Arya Maheshwari led the boys frosh-soph team to a fourth place finish. Weirich defended her individual race title, winning last year by four seconds, this year by 50 seconds. Senior Ryan Adolf continued to shine as the varsity boys leader as he ran 17:44 in the golf course 5k run, improving by 1:00 over last year’s run.
