Sonoma sports scoreboard

Weekly reported results from Sonoma Valley High School athletic games, matches and tournaments, week ending April 4.

Cross country

The Sonoma Valley cross country season ended early, as their final scheduled match for April 7 was canceled by their opponent, Napa Valley High. So the racing Dragons finished completion at Depot Park on March 31 against the traditionally strong Casa Grande team.

Senior Ryan Hengehold finished in 8th place in varsity boys, with a time of 19:52.1. In varsity girls, senior Carmen Carrillo finished in 6th place at 31:51.4. JV competitor Jared Cordero, a junior, was the highest SVHS finisher at 5th with 25:02.8, followed by Mac Portello (25:03.9), Joseph Silvi (25:41.2), Antonio Esteva (25:44.1) and Maeto Luque (26.29.8).

Sonoma Valley won the JV competition as Casa Grande could not field a five-person team.

“Overall, it was nice just to be able to have a cross-country season after the multiple delays because of the pandemic. I was really proud of all the students that stuck with it for this unusual cross-country season.” – Coach John Litzenberg
