WARRIORS NOW TOP DOGS OF CROSS COUNTRY

By Robert Balajadia

From having no team two years ago to being undefeated in 2018, the St. Paul Warriors are currently the IIAAG Cross Country’s top dogs. Monday afternoon the Warriors hosted the Okkodo Bulldogs in a battle of unbeaten teams and St. Paul made quite the statement by sweeping Okkodo 23-32 in the boys and 26-29 in the girls.

Warriors star runner Brandon Miranda finished 18:19.53 and started to pull away from Okkodo’s Kyle Delos Santos around the second mile of the run with the pair battling neck-and-neck all race long. Miranda was seen first down the final stretch with Delos Santos a mere 10 paces behind him.

“Two miles in I had already started to get into my pace and I noticed [Kyle] started to slow down. I managed to have in me to sprint there at the end,” said Miranda on pushing himself to finish strong.

Miranda emptied the gas tank to secure 1st place as Delos Santos grabbed 2nd, but Warriors runner Jacob Miranda locked up 3rd and Kanta Yamazaki grabbed 4th to give the Warriors a big boost in the standing.

The girls race proved much closer, but a 1st place finish for Warriors Jazmin Samonte (24:15.27) and a 4th through 6th place finish by more Warriors gave the edge to the home team St. Paul.

Miranda finished 3rd in the All-Island race last season and hasn’t been dethroned as the top runner in 2018. The speedy junior has his sights set on a 1st place in the All-Island race as well as being able to hoist up some Cross Country hardware.

“My main focus is of course to finish number one, but more importantly I want my team to win the whole thing,” added Miranda.

Samonte was trailing Bulldog Jania Castor, who would finish 2nd, in the early parts of the race. Steady training had prepared Samonte to peak at the right time and there was no looking back after passing Castor a mile in.

“We’ve been doing well in practice and I think that played a key role in how we all raced today,” said Samonte on her day. “I was right around my PR this race and I started to create separation one mile in. I’ve learned how to pace myself pretty well and I don’t normally start strong because I don’t want to die out at the end.”
