This race is Heat 1 of the Division 1 (D1) Girls from the 2018 CIF-ss (Southern Section) Cross Country Prelims meet held on November 10 at the Riverside Cross Country Course.  The course is 3 miles.  The Prelims meet decides the 24 teams and up to 15 individuals in each division that will compete in the Finals meet held on the following weekend.

Commentary:  The Arriaga sisters, who both compete at the top levels in California, go 1-3 in this Prelims race.  It will get lost in other stories when we run the Finals race so we'll note it now - that Finals race was Emma's best of 8 tries at Riverside.  Chloe and Emma go 2-8 at Finals and 4-11 at State.  This Prelims race is a pretty ordinary outing for them but among the best to watch them.  State Champ Great Oak gets other juniors and a frosh into a championship race.  No Gaitan or Cortes in this one.  The 3 big teams in this heat go 1-4-8 at State.
