MMC Championships

F/S Girls (6th place 11 pts)
We only had three girls participating in this division.
Alicia Bargas finished 6th in the 1600m with a 12 second PR of 6:40.2. She then double back in the 3200m with 2nd place and a 42 sec PR of 15:16.19. Carolyn Fraze placed 8th in the 800m in 3:25.07.

Varsity Girls (6th place 54 pts)
Jennifer Hernandez grabbed the last scoring spot in the 200m with a time of 28.8. Marissa Ontiveros barely missed breaking six minutes in the 1600m (6:00.8). In the 3200m Sierra Durham placed 2nd and qualified for sections with a time of 12:16.51. In the same race Rory Jiminez was 6th (13:09.87). In the 100m hurdles Vanessa Alvarez took 6th in a PR time of 18.71. Downey scored in the 300m hurdles with Karina Redding’s 4th place (55.14). Her time was an improvement of over 2 seconds. With her 4th place finish Karina also sneaks into the section meet. In the same race Taylor Wilson finish just behind Karina in 5th with a time of 55.31. The 4x100m relay team of Wend, Finch, Hernandez, and Lowe finished 5th in a time of 53.1. This time ties for #5 on the all-time Downey list.

Simone Wend again dominated the jumping events. She won the high jump in a new PR for her of 4’10”. This leap moved her to #5 on the all-time Downey list. She took 2nd in the triple jump with another PR leap of 33’1”. Again that distance was good for #5 on the all-time Downey list. By the time she got to the long jump I suspect that she was a little tired. Her long jump of 15’3” was a foot off of her best but still good enough for 3rd place. Simone qualified for sections in all three events. She also single-handedly scored almost half of Downey’s points in the meet. It was simply and amazing day of competition for her.

F/S Boys (1st place 137 pts)
The F/S boys won the meet for the second year in a row!
John Kreifels placed 2nd in the 100m with a time of 11.59 (#10 all-time for F/S). In the 200m Kai Zambrano took 2nd in 24.17, Mario Sanchez was 3rd in 24.85, and Josh Baldonado was 6th in 26.37. Saul Zigala placed in both the 400m and 800m. He was 3rd  in the 400m (57.42) and won the 800m by passing two runners in the home stretch (2:16.17. This time was a 5 second PR for him. Jake Crenshaw won the 1600m in 5:15.72. He came back later and took 3rd in the 3200m (12:20.53). Alfonso Urbano was 4th right behind Jake in the 3200m (12:35.53). The 4x100m relay team (Kreifels, Sanchez, Zambrano, Harris) took 2nd (barely nosed out for first) with a time of 46.88. The 4x400m relay team (Zigala, Zambrano, Baldonado, Harris) took 3rd in 3:55.19. In the HJ Herman Harris and Mitchell Evans both cleared 5’4” and tied for 1st place. In the long jump Francisco Solorzano took 2nd (17’3”) and Jake Crenshaw was 6th in 16’2”. Francisco doubled back to also place in the triple jump. His leap of 35’3” was a PR and was good enough for 4th place. Downey athletes dominated the shot put, taking three of the top 6 places. John Kreifels won with a throw of 44’7”, Austin Holt placed 2nd (41’3”) and Jesus Anguiano came in 6th (38’8”). Kreifels tripled up and took 2nd in the discos with a throw of 105’9”.

In the 400m Blake Lopes took 5th in 54.44 and Richard Lopez was 6th in 56.2. Anthony Garcia hung on for 7th place in the 800m (2:11.32). Andrew Osgood grabbed two section qualifying spots, one with his 2nd place (4:41.42) in the 1600m; and one for his 2nd place in the 3200m (10:18.98). Caleb Lowe and Kylo Vaught both qualified for sections in the 110m hurdles. Caleb took 2nd in a big PR time of 15.61. Kylo was right behind him in 3rd (15.85). In the 300m hurdles Paul Bilodeau lowered his personal best to 44.36 in finishing 4th and sneaking into sections. The 4x100 relay team (Cummins, Lowe, Hackett, Gorman) finally raced to their potential! Their 43.94 clocking placed them 3rd overall, qualified them for sections, and ranks as #4 all-time at Downey. The 4x400m relay team (Campbell, Garcia, Lopes, Lopez) knocked 6 seconds off of their best time to finish 5th in 3:47.74. Denzelle Marable and Conner Fenton each cleared 5’10 in the high jump to tie for 2nd place and qualify for sections. Ty Cummins won the long jump and qualified for sections with his 20’00.75 leap.
