n business management at Cerritos College—where he has dropped his 800m best 11-seconds to 1:56.13. Dennis plans to transfer to a 4-year school to complete his collegiate eligibility in either the spring or fall of 2008. His professional goal is to become an electrician or real estate executive.

“Paul and Dennis are great additions to our growing Men’s Middle and Long Distance Corps, says Club Director and Distance Coach Skip Stolley. I think Paul is going to thrive in Southern California’s ultra-competitive distance running environment, and Dennis has ‘scary’ speed and middle distance talent that has just begun to surface.”
