FALLBROOK – The Girls Under 8 Fallbrook Villa Soccer team took first place at the Beach Soccer Championships in Oceanside on May 17 and 18. The format for the tournament was 5 vs. 5 (each team with a goal keeper) and they played three, eleven-minute periods. On Saturday, May 17, the girls beat the Encinitas Express 4-1 and lost to the Oceanside Breakers 3-5. Sunday afternoon, May 18,
the team returned to beat Spartans FC 7-1, earning a rematch with the Breakers. Fallbrook saved their best performance for last by winning the championship match 3-0, a rare beach soccer shutout. The team is just getting started and still holding tryouts for interested players with a passion for competitive soccer. Led by head coach Sergio Garcia, team members Alexis
Best, Anay Garcia, Kate Hayek, Claire Nordeen, Brooke Quintana, Jordan Rodriguez, Karen Ruiz, Alexa Van Eik, Elizabeth Villagran and Audrey Wilson battled the hot sand to bring the championship to Fallbrook. Anay Garcia was the top goal scorer, supported by excellent defense and goalkeeping throughout the tournament.
Warrior boys win distance medley relay at Jaguar Invitational Emily Larson wins girls hurdles heat Joe Naiman Village News Correspondent The combination of a relatively young team and a tough league resulted in Fallbrook High School’s track and field teams losing their first two Avocado West League dual meets after posting 2-1 records in pre-league competition, but the Jaguar Invitational meet April 19 at Valley Center High School showed the ability of the Warrior athletes to be competitive with some of the county’s top runners and field event participants. “We had a great day,” said head coach Marco Arias. Fallbrook won the boys distance medley relay, finishing the race in 11:04.53. Sam Comerford led off with the 1,200-meter segment; Ernest Hughes held the baton for 400 meters; Alex Contreras was Fallbrook’s 800-meter runner; and Rene Hernandez ran the 1,600-meter anchor portion. “They set themselves up,” Arias said. The Warriors were third after Comerford’s leg and fifth before Hernandez took the baton. “We were fairly well back,” Arias said. Arias estimated that Hernandez began his portion 75 to 100 meters behind the leader. “He was able to bring that back,” Arias said. Hernandez won by approximately 75 meters. “It was an amazing race,” Arias said. El Camino had the second-place time of 11:11.18. Fallbrook’s girls distance medley team had a fourth-place finish; the time of 13:30.28 was achieved by Rosanne Lopez running the 1,200-meter portion, Sarah Grantham covering the 400-meter lap, Sarah Girgis holding the baton for 800 meters, and Andrea Vela representing the Warriors for the 1,600-meter anchor segment. “The one that kind of set the world on fire at the Jaguar Invitational was Emily Larson,” Arias said. Grantham was in a faster heat in the 100-meter hurdles and had a time of 17.46 seconds, which placed her seventh. Larson, a freshman, won a slower heat with a time of 17.61 seconds and placed ninth overall. “That was probably the surprise of the day,” Arias said. “She outclassed all the other runners.” Larson’s March 20 JV hurdles race took her 20.54 seconds. She raced on the varsity March 27 and finished third with a time of 19.60 seconds. She then spent the next two dual meets on the junior varsity, winning her April 10 race in 18.87 seconds and also winning that day’s 300-meter hurdles race with a time of 57.91 seconds. “She’s improved leaps and bounds,” Arias said. “Right now she’s our number two hurdler.”
Hayden Haldi was second in the boys long jump at 21 feet 4 3/4 inches and sixth in the discus throw at 141 feet 9 inches. “He had a pretty good day,” Arias said. Mike Sikes, a first-year sophomore, cleared 6’8” to place second overall in the boys high jump. In the individual 1,600-meter race, Hernandez posted a sixth-place time of 4:38. Oscar Ruvalcaba, a sophomore, finished 10th overall in the boys 400-meter race with a time of 53.13 seconds but placed high enough in his heat to receive a medal. “They’re going to continue getting better and better,” Arias said. Fallbrook hosted Westview on March 13 to open the Warriors’ dual meet season. “We beat Westview, which is a pleasant surprise,” Arias said. Both Fallbrook’s boys and the Warrior girls defeated the Wolverines. The Warriors’ March 20 home dual meet against Escondido was a Cougars victory for both the boys and girls. Fallbrook’s boys and girls both won March 27 at Orange Glen. “We matched up better with those teams,” Arias said of the preleague meets. “I actually expected that we were in a tough league.” Both Fallbrook squads lost April 3 at home against Vista and April 10 at Rancho Buena Vista, although Arias has focused on personal achievements rather than team results. “We’ve had a lot of personal records that have come about,” he said. Hernandez and Trevino Cordova were leading Fallbrook’s boys in points before Cordova pulled a hamstring. “We were very, very competitive until Trevino got injured,” Arias said. Arias believes that Cordova’s injury likely made the difference in the results against Escondido and Rancho Buena Vista. “I think we’d win those two with Trevino being healthy,” Arias said. Cordova’s 12th-place finish in the 100-meter dash at the Jaguar Invitational reflected his injury. “He tried coming back for the Jaguar, but he’s lost some conditioning,” Arias said. Cordova was scratched out of the 200-meter dash at the Jaguar Invitational. Grantham has led Fallbrook’s girls in success during 2014. “Sarah Grantham is just having a phenomenal season. Pretty much everywhere we put her as far as field or track, she’s excelled,” Arias said. Haldi has been the Warriors’ top boys field athlete this year. “He’s improved his discus just about every single meet,” Arias said. Haldi’s 141’9” discus throw at the Jaguar Invitational was a personal record by more than eight feet. He participates in sprints and relay races as well as the long jump
and discus. Haldi, Grantham, Hernandez, and Cordova are all seniors as are Contreras, Lopez, and Girgis, but Arias sees the younger athletes contributing to the Warriors’ future. “It’s pretty bright,” he said. “We’re not going to be completely empty once these guys go.” Boys distance runner Chris Larson is not related to Emily Larson, but Chris Larson is also a freshman. Comerford and Hughes are sophomores, and distance runner Elijah Roque is a junior. Freshman Jack Grantham is showing signs of his sister’s hurdles skill, and he also participates in the long jump and triple jump. Hurdler and relay runner John Pease is a junior. Sprinter DeQuincy Roberson is a sophomore. In addition to Emily Larson, the top girls freshmen include distance runner Ariana Buchholz and thrower Annie Curran. Key girls sophomores include Vela and discus thrower Tatiana Arias, who also runs hurdles races. “They’re just young and they need a little more experience,” Marco Arias said. “It’s pretty exciting,” Arias said. “It’s been a challenging season, but it’s been worth it.” Arias coaches the Warrior throwers and distance runners as well as handling head coach duties. Jim Curran is Fallbrook’s pole vault coach, John Kroeger assists with the jumps, and Miguel Trejo coaches the sprinters. “I’m extremely proud of every single one of them because of the dedication they give to the program,” Arias said.
