Sam Juliano
Sam Juliano has been a sports fan since he was young boy but did not start becoming active in organized sport unitil 8th grade. Deciding to join the track team at C.E. Utt Middle School Sam’s vain attempts at sprints led him to distance running which he has continued up to this day. In his running Sam competed at Tustin High School, Santa Ana College and continuing to compete unattached while at UC San Diego. His favorite races are the steeplechase (10:17) and 5k (16:03) but he is also a big fan of cross country. A recent graduate of UCSD, Sam is going to attend graduate school at Chico State where he will study political science. In his off time he will cheer for the Chicago Bulls, Pittsburgh Penguins and Anaheim Angels while hoping the Tritons can move to Division I.
