2013 Desert Oasis Girls Cross Country Capsule

 

 

DESERT OASIS

Head coach: Jim Dinkel, sixth season

Returning letter winners: Six

Top athletes: Brooke Locey (Jr.), Alexandra Myers (Jr.), Delaney Paul (Jr.), Ellie Tchernagarova (Jr.), Briona Viloria (So.)

Outlook: Locey was a state meet qualifier last year and is back to lead a team that isn’t exactly senior-laden.

Of the team’s expected top runners, four are juniors and one is a sophomore.

“The girls will look to improve on their 3-2 Southwest League record from last year,” Dinkel said.
