Iolani Invitational

Sophomore Kristin Parry of Dana Hills won the girls varsity cross country race yesterday morning. Parry led the girls over the 3-mile course in 17:59.81. More than 1,000 runners competed in six races that featured intermediate and high school teams from Hawai'i and California. The event is now in its 10th year.

Parry pulled away from Meghan Marvin of Clovis (Calif.) with about a half-mile remaining on the flat, grassy and hot course that crossed through several fields at Wheeler. Parry and Marvin led through two miles, followed closely by three Dana Hills runners and Clovis' Saylah Barserian. Following in the second group was Kaiser's Sarah Clapp and 'Iolani's Jenna Wong. Clapp was the first Hawaii runner to finish in 7th place with a time of 18:47 followed by Jenna Wong in 18:56.

I don't think there are any "unbeatens" left. All of the top Hawaii girls have lost to another Hawaii girl at some meet this season. The last one to go was Julie Besenbruch, who may not have lost a meet since before she won the 2006 Cross Country Championship.
