O 'Malley leads the Rams to a Close Win

The Garces boys won by one point over the Drillers so every spot was a battle. The gaps between runners was pretty big so the coaches probably running around like crazy trying to implore their athletes to catch another runner.

In the girls race, Guzman took second but was followed by three Drillers which made it hard for the Rams to take the team competition.
