Sounding very much like one of those phone company commercials, Irvine girls’ cross-country Coach Randy Rossi assessed the results of Saturday’s Woodbridge Invitational this way:

“It’s just another day in Orange County.”

Today offers a chance to see how two of Orange County’s best girls’ teams compare.

Irvine, ranked No. 2 in the first county poll, plays host to No. 3 Corona del Mar at 3 p.m. at Irvine.

Corona del Mar, employing textbook pack running, is fresh from an impressive victory over Laguna Hills in the Division IV race Saturday. Irvine squeezed past Esperanza on the strength of a faster No. 6 runner, breaking a 65-65 tie.
