SAN FRANCISCO AND BERKELEY, Calif. –  The Aggies stormed the bay area for competition at both the Mike Fanelli Classic and Brutus Hamilton Invite, returning triumphant with a new record and multiple big finishes and personal bests in tow.
 
Dani Barrett and Ethan Brooks swept the first day of the Mike Fanelli, both earning the first-place titles in the 10k, Barrett breaking the Aggie event record with her final time.
 
In all, the Ags totaled up 13 top-five wins on the weekend.
 
HOW IT HAPPENED (MEN):
Junior Ethan Brooks kicked off the Mike Fanelli for the men's group with a gold finish in the 10,000 meter run. His time of 29:29.89 not only gave him the victory with the second-place finisher ten seconds behind him, but it also wrote him in as fifth in the Aggie records in the event.
 
Junior Muhammed Ahmed kicked off day two at the Mike Fanelli with a second place result in the 5,000 meter run, clocking third in the Davis school records with his speedy 14:00.37 finish.
 
In Berkeley for the Decathlon, freshman Justin Reichenberg stretching over the course of two days.
