Coming this afternoon

It's a busy day in the B section today in the Enterprise. Here's what to expect:

A cycling team of one

The Team Type 1 team, comprised entirely of cyclists with type 1 diabetes, won the Race Across America in 5 days, 15 hours, 43 minutes. The trek began in Oceanside and wrapped up in Atlantic City, N.J. The twist was: Davis' Matt Vogel and the other seven cyclists were competing against others who did not have to monitor their blood sugar before and after every ride or give themselves insulin shots throughout. They went out to prove that people with well-controled diabetes can accomplish anything they want.

Alger tests skills at Junior Olympics

After competing against the same divers for Davis High School in the Sac-Joaquin Section, Mark Alger was looking
to test his skills against athletes from out of the area. So when he found out that the 2007 Amateur Athletics Union West Coast Junior Olympic Games were being hosted by UC Davis, he jumped at the opportunity to participate in the event at Schaal Aquatics Center.

Barton extends hitting streak

WEST SACRAMENTO — Daric Barton declined his invitation to the Midwest League All-Star Game in 2004, opting instead
to use the plane ticket he had already purchased to travel home. Before Wednesday’s game, he called that decision “a mistake.” He’ll have a chance to make up for it.Barton, the hottest hitter in the entire minor leagues, will be been named to the Pacific Coast League All-Star team when it is officially announced today. He celebrated by extending his hitting streak to 22 games, cracking a home run during Sacramento’s 10-3 win over Fresno at Raley Field.
