Cross country comes up big in Santa Barbara

Last Saturday, while the Fall Tailgate was in full swing on campus, the cross country team was in Santa Barbara to compete in the 2019 Gaucho Cross Country Invitational held on the UC Santa Barbara campus. The team started the season off strong improving their times from last year. Senior Nicky Yoong had the biggest improvement, shaving off 1:20 from his time from last year. Senior Evan Hayes improved his time by nearly a minute as well. Freshman Phoebe Salvati showed her strength early in her career, setting a new Poly ninth-grade record for the course. Of the 22 runners who went to Santa Barbara, eight medaled against a strong field filled with schools much larger than Poly. Congratulations to Poly’s cross country team!
