Not only has the Agoura girls’ cross-country team won the last three Southern Section Division I team titles, it has produced the individual champion in each of those years. Sophomore Amy Skieresz won Saturday at Mt. San Antonio College, and she was preceded by Deena Drossin (1990) and Kay Nekota (1991). Nekota, a junior, finished third Saturday.
Fillmore senior Maribella Aparicio won her second consecutive Southern Section Division IV championship Saturday, her third section title. Aparicio won the 1989 1-A Division title as a freshman and placed second in the Division IV meet as a sophomore.
When Hart finished second to Thousand Oaks in the boys’ Division I meet Saturday, it marked the first time in the four-year career of senior Keith Grossman that he has not been on a Southern Section championship team. Grossman, a four-year varsity letterman, was on Hart teams that won the 3-A Division title in 1989 and Division I titles in 1990 and ’91.
Girls’ volleyball: Nordhoff Coach Cheryl Glass became the second coach to win four Southern Section titles Saturday when the Rangers beat Atascadero. Former Mira Costa Coach DaeLea Aldrich has won five. . . L.A. Baptist senior outside hitter Sarah Rameson has set six school records in leading the Knights into the state playoffs. Her 450 kills broke Lucrieta Haynes’ 1991 mark of 325 and her 896 kills in her career bettered Haynes’ record of 480. Rameson also set a single-match standard of 32 kills, eclipsing Andrea Lucadem’s 1989 mark of 23; improved her own hitting-percentage mark from .324 to .367 and erased her sister Nicole’s season record for aces, 79-76. Rameson also had a combined total of 34 digs last week in the Southern Section Division V semifinals and final to give her a single-season record 203. Jill deRuyter set L.A. Baptist records for assists in one season (651) and one match (49).
Water polo: Royal senior Jack Kocur finished his career as the No. 5 scorer in Southern Section history with 375 goals. Kocur had one goal Friday in the Highlanders’ 6-4 loss to Esperanza, giving him 145 this season.
Miscellaneous: Nordhoff scored a rare triple Saturday when it won three Southern Section titles in the same day--in girls’ volleyball and in boys’ and girls’ cross-country.
