At Capo Valley we traditionally take invite 10-12 girls to be a part of the “CIF” team, knowing that barring injury the likelihood of anyone but the top 7 or 8 racing is not high. Only 7 girls can race at CIF Prelims, Finals and State. The top 7 teams advance to the STATE meet Thanksgiving weekend in Fresno at Woodward Park. Then the top 24 teams advance to CIF Finals the next week. The heats are seeded through 16 so make them balanced. IN addition, teams ranked in the top 16 in 2 of the last 4 official CIF polls(beginning post OC Champs week) also advance as “at large” teams.ĬIF Prelims, currently being held at a course in Riverside involves the 40-60 teams in each division divided into 2 or 3 heats. First in 5 and 6 team leagues, the top 3 teams based on the leagues method, advance automatically to CIF Prelims. Sea View also has many outstanding teams as Orange County is the top region in the State in terms of qualityĪdvancing to CIF is done in two ways. South Coast League in Cross Country is considered the “super league” in the State, even the nation!!!! The quality of teams, boys and girls is remarkably accomplished and deep. The boys will likely move up to South Coast next cycle, given their strong recent performances!! In sports like cross county, it's possible for one gender to be in one league and one in the other (as is the case for Capo). So the top 5 schools are assigned to it every two years. The South Coast League is considered the “upper” or best league. In all sports, schools are assigned to the leagues based on a two year assessment of their performance in league. Two Leagues operate within the CVAA, the South Coast League and the Sea View League. We are in Division 2 currently the smallest school in 2 and in mid October there will be a revision of the divisions with possibility of us moving to 3 this year, and highly likely that we move to 3 next year with continued shrinking enrollment.ĬVAA is the combination of the Saddleback and Capistrano Unified School Districts, 10 schools. The State and each section is then divided into 5 divisions based on enrollment in the school. It is the most powerful and has a great depth of quality teams. We are in the Southern Section which has 40% of all the schools in California, almost 600. If you have any questions or would like more information, please contact me or any board member at COUGARS!!ĬIF (California Interscholastic Federation) is the governing body of high school sports in California it is divided into 10 regional sections. I thank you in advance for supporting the CAPO Valley XC Booster Club. Programs like these need volunteers and the support of parents to remain viable.
Volunteering my time with cross country at CAPO Valley has been rewarding. On behalf of the CAPO Valley XC Booster Club, I would like to encourage you to volunteer and help support the athletes of the CAPO Valley cross country team.Īs a parent, I encourage new parents and returning parents to get involved with the CAPO XC boosters and your athletes’ team. The new cross country season has already shown signs of great success for both the boys’ and girls’ teams! I, as well as my fellow board members, are excited for the rest of the cross-country season! Last year was a year most will never forget and came with its own set of challenges, however the athletes of CAPO Valley cross country are amazing and showed their dedication to the sport by never giving up! It is with their dedication to the sport of cross country, we, as parents, board members, and coaches will do everything possible to make their experience as a CAPO Valley XC athlete something that will create memories to last a lifetime.
Welcome to the CAPO Valley XC Booster Club!
