The VC men's cross country team produced its best finish in the Western State Conference Championships in six years on Friday, reaching the podium in third place as a team. Leading the charge for the Pirates was sophomore runner Erick Tienda. The Rio Mesa High School graduate earned All-WSC honors finishing in 12th place overall out of 100 competitors in the field. His time of 23:10 for the 4-mile course helped Ventura earn 104 team points to finish in third place as a team, the best finish since 2017's runner-up standing. For his outstanding effort, Tienda is this week's VC Pirate Student Athlete of the Week honoree sponsored by M & M Sports.
