Cheruiyot pulled away from Bouramdane as they entered the Newton Hills, reaching the crest of Heartbreak Hill with a 27-second lead and coasting to the sixth-fastest time in Boston Marathon history. Dire Tune outkicked Alev-tina Alev-tina Biktimirova after a back-and-forth last mile to win by 2 seconds in the closest finish in the history of the women's race.

Sheide agrees, saying it's been a very different experience experi-ence for him to coach the girls squad than it was with the boys. "There were two times that really showed me that things were going to be different with the girls," Sheide recalled. "The first was on our second day. We were on the putting green and we'd been practicing practic-ing for 20 or 30 minutes. When I turned around, all 10 girls that were there had linked elbows el-bows and were doing a chorus line dance. "The other time was when we picked out our uniforms.

When we went to our first meet, the other teams all thought our girls looked really re-ally cute and professional." While the girls had a great time playing with their teammates, team-mates, many of them were concerned heading into their first competition. "I was a little nervous," said Tiger senior Meg Cross, who also had never played before. "Once I got out there, It was really fun." Sheide said that it was a great opportunity for the girls to realize that many of their opponents felt the same way they did. "On our first bus ride to Tooele, I think they were all nervous and didn't know quite what to expect on their scores," the Orem head coach terror of the NBA during the 1990s, winning six championships. champion-ships.

"This was the hardest," Cheruiyot Che-ruiyot said. "Boston is not a very easy course, it's very difficult. (But) I enjoy running the hills." The race came a day after the U.S. trials featured the top American women running for a berth in the Olympics. Deena Kastor, Magdalena Lewy Boulet said. "They told me their shoulders shoul-ders were tense and they were tight. "My favorite memory is them getting on the practice green with the other girls and finding out that the others were just as nervous as they were," he continued. "It didn't matter if they swung and missed, it didn't matter if they got a nine on a hole because the other girls were doing the same thing. They realized it was OK to mess up." Since that time, however, the girls have been steadily getting better. "I think my favorite part of coaching has been the attitude of the girls," said Brems. "They want to be there, they want to learn and they want to get better. bet-ter. It's a fun group of girls." For each individual, improvement im-provement means something a little different.

"I know a lot more about the rules and how to apply them." For Reid, her favorite part of the season has been seeing her friends get better. "I've loved meeting the new girls and seeing how far they've come in such a short time," the senior said. Orem appears to be the second best team in Region 7 (behind a strong Tooele squad), while Lone Peak will be battling bat-tling Spanish Fork and Pleasant Pleas-ant Grove in Region 4. Although the competition is widely varied, the teams have also had to get used to the reality real-ity of spring sports with Utah's fickle weather. "Weather has been an issue," Brems explained. "We haven't been able to get out enough to really see how good we're going to be. But I think this is great. The Cavemen simply couldn't find a way to get the bats going, struggling to make contact with Zimmerman's Zimmer-man's change-up and drop ball.

Among those in the event's second-largest field: cyclist Lance Armstrong and astronaut astro-naut Sunita Williams, who ran a simulated Boston Marathon last year while in orbit on the International Space Station. Armstrong won the Tour de France seven times on the strength of his work in the mountains. When he started preparing for Boston, his third marathon, some race veterans told him the hills weren't as difficult dif-ficult as their reputation made them out to be. "They were wrong," said Armstrong, who finished 496th in 2:50:58. "They are harder, and they do come at a difficult time in the race." The Boston Marathon is the most famous event of its kind and draws entrants from all over the world. It has become something of a pilgrimage for runners in the United States as well. This year, there were 28 North County residents who completed com-pleted the tough course. "In this first year, we'll see what happens and what skills the girls have. I think this is great for the state and I think many of the girls will find success where they wouldn't somewhere else." Both coaches are mainly looking for their players to succeed in a simpler way than can be defined by the scores on the course. "I'm more concerned with them developing a love for the game," Sheide said. "I think down the road these teams will be so much better, but right now I hope they're having fun."
