The Orinda Intermediate Bulldogs won sixth-grade girls, seventh-grade boys, and eighth-grade girls championships to help win the coveted Overall Middle School Track & Field Championship. The last time OIS won, it was 1970 and the school was known as Inland Valley.
There were many outstanding performances with Rowan Keenan, Tom Riley, Jordan Matthews, Zach Denniston, Rorey Freer, Grace Stott and Brendon Collins all top-point scorers helping OIS win its first Overall Track Championship in 52 years.
Special thanks are due to the now legendary OIS coach Jason Curry. With more than 80 events in a single meet, Curry's attention to detail, preparation, patience, and inspirational leadership helped the more than 100 participants compete at the highest level.
