The Chabot men's cross country team had a big run from "Shoeless" Lucas Vigil at the Oct. 26 Coast Conference Championships at the dreaded Crystal Springs Cross Country Course in Belmont.
While the Gladiators placed three men in the top six, Vigil had a huge breakthrough performance after losing his shoe at the mile mark. After the mishap, Vigil took a second or two to secure "fresh kicks," according to coach Kyle Robinson, and then ran down more than 25 people for a stellar sixth-place finish and an All-Conference award.
Chabot placed second behind Hartnell College.
