THE ASTORIAN By GARY HENLEY The Astorian W arrenton cross-coun- try coach Hayley Espelund Rogers likes talking about the future and potential of the War- riors’ running program. The present is pretty good, too. A good gauge in every Warren- ton season is the pre season running camp (more of a team vacation) the Warriors attend every year in central Oregon. “Our camp is August 26-29, and it looks to be probably the biggest yet, pushing 20 (runners) at this point,” Rogers said. In such an individualized sport, there’s strength in numbers in cross-country. And there has been a resurgence in Warrenton cross-coun- try numbers in recent years. In 2018, the Warrenton girls had the only full team in the junior varsity district race — which is an accom- plishment in District 1/3A, where the dominant teams are almost always from the private schools. At the varsity level, four of the fi ve scoring teams on the boys’ side were the private schools, while Oregon Episcopal and Catlin Gabel were fi rst and second on the girls’ side. For now, the Warriors are just focusing on themselves. Among others, the Warrenton girls will have to replace their top runner from 2018, Adriana Dejesus. “I have confi dence in my students that I have coached, and think we will have a competitive girls team if we FALL SPORTS PREVIEW SATURDAY, AUGUST 31, 2019 • 19 can fi ll a couple of the seniors’ spots who left last year,” Rogers said.
