Head coach: Cathy Meyer, third season

Returning letter winners: Six

Top athletes: Carla Gatson (Jr.), Abbie Torres-Jimenez (Sr.), Katie Pena (Sr.), Kassandra Torres (So.)

Outlook: The Roadrunners won the Sunrise League and finished fourth in the Southern Region last year. They return six letter winners from that squad, including four top-25 finishers in the region meet in Torres-Jimenez (11th), Pena (17th), Torres (21st) and Gatson (23rd).

“Several talented first-year runners join the returning letter winners to form a very competitive team,” Meyer said. “We plan to defend the league championship and hope to qualify for the state meet.”
