Pirate sophomore Adan Cruz is making up for lost time. Unable to compete for the men's cross country team for the first half of the season, the Ventura High School product has quickly regained the form that made him on of the top runners in the state a year ago. This past week, Adan ran the 4-mile course at the Western State Conference Championships at Bonneli Park in San Dimas in 21:26, good for sixth place overall. He paced the Pirates' team to a fifth place finish overall, qualifying them for the SoCal Regionals Nov. 3 in Cerritos. For his efforts, he has been named this week's VC Pirate Student Athlete of the Week.
