Big congrats to Tim! He finished in 12 place with a 16:30. With all that Tim and the rest of the BC team has went through this year, it was a great way to end the season. Also, since he was in the top 15, Tim is All-State!

The Cards finished 3rd at the South Central Regional meet. Sammy and Francis will advance to the National meet. We might be able to pull out an at-large bid tomorrow, but its unlikely. Great season guys! 2.Sammy Kosgei-29:55.5 8.Francis Kasagule-30:59.8 18.Drew Bean (LCM)-31:31.3 24.Hillary Samoei-31:48.7 30.Frank Bwambale-32:08.4 66.Randy Becker(BC)-33:24.1 109.Jared Rodriguez-35:36.8 [Hidden Content]

I wonder what is the story on them. I heard that she isn't cleared to play yet. But I don't know if there is any truth to this.

Sounds like a good game! Come on Cards! Dang,I should've went to it. Argh, tests...

Congrats to everybody that ran this weekend! Great seasons from everybody even with the hurricane interupting training for many.

Congrats! Lady Cards win 3-1. Very nice crowd there tonight.

Yes, it is sad. We will all miss her and wish her the best of luck at George Mason. I am sure that whoever they find to replace will be very good as well.

Of coure, this was my favorite line.......Ray Allen only dropped 29 last night. He hadn't done much, until last night. He got it going and the Celtics won.

Big Congrats guys, 3 in a row! The women also finished 7th. 1 Samuel Kosgei- 24:13 2 Francis Kasagule- 24:31 6 Hilary Samoei- 25:29 8 Frank Bwambale- 25:33 12 Drew Bean (LCM)- 25:53 32 Randy Becker (BC)- 27:03 54 Jared Rodriguez- 28:17 56 Spencer Prudhomme- 28:22 [Hidden Content]

[Hidden Content] Congrats Lady Cards!

I think with it being in Houston, the Rockets will take this one. Also, Ray Allen hasn't done too much yet for Boston. Celtics will need him to get going to win this one.

How bout them Rockets! 3-0

Ybarra did graduate and is now playing for Lamar.

Congrats and good luck at regionals.

[Hidden Content] Here's the roster for the guys. A bunch of local guys on the team. Drew Bean-LCM Randy Becker-Bridge City Ryan Kelly-Bridge City Aaron Malek-Barbers Hill Austin Malek-Barbers Hill Jared Rodriguez-Baytown Sterling Jess Williams-Barbers Hill

No joke. And I get to run with him everyday! He is so insanely fast. He is an awesome guy and works very hard so that he can be one of the best in the country.

He knocked off the 2 time defending champ in the outdoor 10k Shadrack Songok too. We're looking pretty good right now, hopefully we can keep this going through conference and regionals.

I want to thank all of the runners who also came and helped out at my house. I had the chance to become friends and teammates with all of them last year, and Coach Bozman is definitely right about the character of these guys and girls. They are amazing people and hopefully they can be rewarded with a trip to state. They team ran at the Aldine Invitational yesterday and many of the runners didn't let Ike get to them, and went out and ran personal bests, after almost 2 weeks of not training together!!Thanks again to Coach Knight and the BCCC teams.

BRIDGE CITY - Karen Bozman and her husband cleared a waist-high layer of swamp grass from the living room floor when a dozen or so high school distance runners arrived last week. "It was a blessing," said Bozman, who has coached many of those runners since they were in junior high. Surely, many houses ruined by Hurricane Ike will be cleaned and rebuilt with help by neighbors, but Bridge City High School runners lent a hand at this house. Team members did so after they kept alive a dream with their first post-Ike practice, held Wednesday at the school's track. "I didn't have any clue it would be this bad, but you've got to go along and help everybody out," Bridge City sophomore Brandon Simoneaux said. "Everybody needs a little bit of help." Many runners wore Bridge City cross country T-shirts as they shoveled long brown shards of grass into piles in front of a house that no longer has a front wall. Then they tore down drywall with hammers and croquet mallets found among flood debris. A day later, they returned with large and small boxes to pack what didn't get ruined in a flood caused by Ike. One girl, Mary Nguyen, painted BCCC, for Bridge City Cross Country, in red, with a yellow arrow through the last two Cs on one box. She also painted IKE in gray with a red X over it. "It's fun to help as a team," Nguyen said. And it is as a team that the Cardinals boys and girls cross country squads didn't let Ike alter their goal of reaching the state meet, thanks in part to Bozman, an assistant cross country and head track coach at the high school. "She makes us stay positive because we were negative all year last year," Nguyen said. "This year, we're more positive, and she's the one who told us to be positive." Bozman said she can only feel upbeat when she receives the help she has from her runners. "It lifts your spirits," said Bozman, who lives in the house with her husband, Bryan, their two children, Kristi, 20, and Russell, 12, and her mother, Peggy Russell. "We were worn out, because all of that marsh grass was in this house." The Bozmans' house took about eight feet of water during a storm surge that flooded nearly every house in Bridge City. This house sits about 100 feet from marshland that borders the edges of Sabine Lake, which flows into the Gulf of Mexico. The family returned home from College Station just days after Ike hit and found the house exactly like they had seen it after the storm on cnn.com, with the thick layer of marsh grass and a piano among other belongings smashed against kitchen cabinets. "Everything was against the back wall," Bryan Bozman said. Once inside the house, they confronted about 60 snakes, dozens of fish and a few snapping turtles inside the grass. Everything rushed in with a surge of water that destroyed neighboring homes. Runners said Bozman encouraged their mid-summer workouts. Several boys ran more than 400 miles during the summer. Many girls topped 300 miles. They did so with hopes of reaching the state meet Nov. 15 in Round Rock. Last season, the boys finished 10th at state. The girls missed the state meet but have high hopes. This year, the girls won at both of their first two meets and the boys won once, but both had three meets canceled by Hurricanes Gustav and Ike. They competed Saturday at North Harris Community College in Houston, on the same course where the state-qualifying meet will be Nov. 8. "We've got to run, otherwise we're going to lose everything we worked for over the summer," Simoneaux said. "I was kind of glad we started running again. We get a little break from the house and everything. It gives us a little bit of excitement, hanging out with our friends." Although many Bridge City runners made cleaning the Bozmans' house their goal, they also have their own homes to tend to. But at the Bozmans' is where they reconnected and bonded after Ike. "You go through moments of when you're high emotionally and you're doing OK mentally, and then you're low," Bryan Bozman said. "(Wednesday), I was kind of low, and at about the time (the runners) came, there was a wave of joy." And no matter how the season unfolds for the Cardinals, Karen Bozman is certain about one thing. "No matter what they do, they're already state champs, not only on the track but at the school. What they're doing right now," she said as runners passed filled boxes to each other down a stairwell, "shows their true character."
