American River College’s Jenica Dodge wins the 2015 Fresno Invitational

Sophomore team captain, Jenica Dodge won the overall 5k Title in the Fresno Invitational at Woodward Park on 9/11/15. She took the lead after the first mile then ran away with the title by half a minute over the 2^nd place finisher.

"Her 18:23 was an impressive finish, especially for this early in the season in addition to racing solo for the last two miles", says Coach Powless.

Dodge (Whitney HS) led her squad to a 7^th place team finish of the 17 California Communities Colleges competing. The lady beavers were the 3^rd team from the north behind Hartnell and Sequoias.

Freshman, Regina Nyareso (Monterey Trail HS), finished 7^th overall with her 19:24. Freshman, Lucie Chevreuil (Vista del Lago HS), placed 55^th in 21:24 followed by freshman Eleanor Velez (Oak Ridge HS), and Aubrei Stahl (Roseville HS) to top out the Beavers top 5. Rounding out the top seven included freshman Tamara Howell (Homeschool), and Jaclyn Leduc (Del Oro HS).

"It was a much better team performance for us this week in slicing off 5 min. from our combined top five finishers last week at Granite Regional Park. We are a young squad with only one sophomore with a lot more work to do. Fortunately, we are improving and moving in the right direction", comments Coach Powless.

Next up for the lady beavers will be the Pat Ryan Invitational in Santa Rosa as a preview of their Big 8 Conference 5k course on Friday Sept. 18.
