Sunny Day for the Mustangs

SAN MARCOS, CALIF- Both Mustangs' teams showed some strong performances this morning in San Marcos, California. Once again the men competed at the 8K distance, while the women ran at the 6K distance.
 
A few nationally ranked teams also performed against the Mustangs including Chico State, Cal Poly Pomona, and UC San Diego.
 
Back on top this week for the men was Aaron Perez (El Paso, TX/Eastwood HS) as they surged through the finish line. He came in strong and placed 22nd overall, taking home a time of 25:21.4min.
