The Mustang cross country team took part in the PVL Championships on Wednesday October 24. With #1 runner Jerrad Reinhard nursing a sore hip and #2 runner Joshua Rose leaving the team for personal reasons, the rest of the team showed true Mustang spirit and determination to try and pick up the slack. Storm Peterson (21:27) and Antonio Zambrano (22:32) covered the 5k course in personal bests and Chase Peterson (20:16), Shane Voll (20:37), and Josh Bergeron (22:27) ran near-personal bests. In the end, Bear River edged the Mustangs 154-145 to push Foothill into 6th place in league. The evening also was a league wide Senior Appreciation night with Foothill"s Storm Peterson and Shane Voll receiving recognition. The next meet will be sub-sections on November 3 at Calaveras County Fairgrounds. Qualifiers will advance to Sections on November 10 at Willow Hills Reservoir in Folsom.

Football
Let's start with everyone's favorite sport and America's game: football. They're off to a rough start for pre-season this year with an overall record of 0-4 for both JV and varsity, but playing tough teams like Oakmont High School and Davis High School with a brand new playbook brought in this year by new head coach, Scott Swartz, it's more practice for the upcoming league games in October. After the fourth game however, Coach Swartz resigned from his coaching position and assistant coach, Jesse Phillips, stepped up to take over the team. The final preseason game is at home this Friday, September 28 against Natomas High School.
Volleyball
Girls varsity volleyball has seen some positive success so far this season with an overall record of 2-6, including shutouts against both Natomas High School and Highlands High School. Much effort and fiery passion is put in by these girls at any game. Their next game is Tuesday, September 25, at Highlands High School.
Soccer
Boys varsity soccer is having a good season this year with an overall record of 3-4-1. The tie game was against Antelope High School and two of their three wins were shutouts. Their next game is September 26 at Colfax High School.
Cross Country
Cross country is off on good strides for the boys varsity team this season. After their first league meet at Gibson Ranch, they are 6th in league (PVL) at the moment, but are practicing hard and lowering their times at each meet. Their next meet is October 6 at Granite Regional Park.
