We had our middle school cross country championships on November 6th at Canyon Middle School in Castro Valley where one of our 6th grade boys received a medal for 4th place and an 8th grade girl received a 2nd place medal. 

Wanted to send you this photo of most of the students who participated. Again, we appreciate the donation of the t-shirts, no other teams had bright yellow shirts so they were easy to spot in a crowd.  We had 9 weeks of practice at Crab Cove from Monday through Thursday each week, and participated in three meets besides the championships, one was at Lake Temescal with Piedmont middle school hosting, one was at Bancroft Middle School in San Leandro and the other was at Joaquin Miller Park with Head Royce hosting.  

It was a successful fun season.  Thank you and LMJS for supporting our team.
