The Bruins’ top runner finished second in the Mt. San Antonio College National Invitational meet. She posted a time of 18:26, six seconds behind the winner, in the Individual Sweepstakes race. The time was good enough to help her team grab third place in the team competition. Coach Hartzell Alpizar says Sumi’s goal is to “get to the Kinney meet (a national meet at the end of the season) and run well there in front of the college scouts.”
