ROUNDUP : San Fernando Runners Take Conference Title

Carlo Danor and Mike Krentzin of Taft High placed first and second in the Northwest Valley Conference boys’ cross-country final Thursday at Pierce College, but San Fernando walked off with the conference title by virtue of a tiebreaker.

Taft finished deadlocked with San Fernando with 51 points, but the Tigers were awarded the title because their No. 6 runner placed ahead of Taft’s sixth man.

Danor finished the three-mile course in 16 minutes 10 seconds, two seconds ahead of Krentzin. Jorge Sanchez of San Fernando placed third in 16:20.

In the girls’ race, El Camino Real edged Taft, 40-42. Jenny Armenta of Kennedy won the girls’ title in 19:31.

In another cross-country meet:

Hoover 22, Glendale 33--Margarito Casillas of Hoover set a school record of 14:44 in a Pacific League victory over the three-mile course at Verdugo Park. Casillas broke the Hoover mark of 14:57 set two years ago by former All-American Eliazar Herrera.
