The James Logan Colts Varsity Boys and Girls Track and Field Team has dominated the Mission Valley Athletic League for quite a while. They have placed and qualified for the North Coast Section Finals and State Finals for more than ten consecutive years.

Unfortunately, this year the boy’s track team fell short of the league title by losing to the Newark Memorial Cougars. However, the Girls track team dominated league and finished with an undefeated overall record.

More than 60,000 runners, spectators and rather oddly dressed people gathered around San Francisco to run 12 kilometers through the tortilla-littered streets. The Bay to Breakers has been an annual pride for the city since 1912 and holds the Guinness World record for the highest participant footrace in the world.
