Costa Cross Country Congratulations to Dalia Frias and the Boys Varsity Cross Country team who received shoutouts in the industry publication MileSplit Pro! Dalia was one of the top 5 girls in CIF regionals last year, finished 3rd in the state and competed on the Foot Locker West Region team. Great things are expected from her as she begins 2020-2021 competition.  The boys’ team, while losing 5 of their top 9 runners to graduation, are projected as a “sleeper that could come from off the radar to surprise many". It was noted that “Mira Costa performed very well at Desert Twilight in October 2020" demonstrating significant improvement. Returning #1 runner Cormac Carew posted a huge PR of 15:19, with Colin Beale just behind at 15:23. Seamus O’Meara also made significant strides over last year, and the runners that didn’t post PR’s showed they were at least starting from where they left off at the end of the 2019 season.

Shout out to Costa’s Girls Water Polo graduating seniors! Congrats to Girls Water Polo Graduating Seniors: Quincy Rowley, Fran Barille, Elizabeth Terry, Emma May, Maiken Pardon, Maddie Stouder, and Audrey Lee. (not pictured Lauren Chiu, Savanah Krohn, Reed Ehrhardt)

Important Notice Regarding Team Sponsorships Sponsorships of Mira Costa athletic teams and visual and performing arts organizations are only available through MBX Booster Clubs. This includes the sale of banners, branded merchandise, distribution of promotional materials, publishing game calendars and more. It has come to our attention that several companies are approaching local businesses and representing themselves as selling sponsorships that say they benefit Mira Costa athletics. These are not authorized representations and NO funds from these activities are received by Mira Costa High School or the teams they say they are representing. If you or your business are approached, please contact Jennifer Williams HERE. We can verify the validity of the opportunity and direct you to the appropriate booster officers.
