MEET SUMMARY
Provided by Brad Peters & the King Frosh/Soph Clasic Meet Management

The host King High Girls managed to pull away in the final events from a precocious group of Canadians to win the King High Frosh Soph Classic for the second-year straight. The Canadian group, all heralding from Calgary and admittedly enjoying the 80-degree temps, were led by Jean Bolen in the 800, and Rachel Machin and Jill MacEachen, both of whom were stars in the hurdles and the horizontal jumps. MacEachan was almost a full second ahead of her nearest competitor in the 100 hurdles and won at 16-01 in the long jump. Machin launched herself to a second-place finish in the event at 16-00 and also won the high jump at 4-10. Centennial placed second in the 4x100 relay as well, but it was the depth of the King attack that allowed the Wolves to hold on for the victory.

Amber Sanford of King was second in the 100 and first in the 200 at "varsity-quality times" of 12.84 and 26.75 respectively. The 4x100 team of Sanford, Tiffany West, Rachel Schulte and Juli Lambert won at 51.08. Rebecca Asplund won both long-distance races, running to a PR in the 1600 at 5:34.15 and coming from behind in the 3200 to win at 12:22.05 despite warm temperatures.

Lima Tuufuli of Riverside La Sierra threw the shot 43-2.5 to win there while placing 4th in the discus. Chantel Hicks of King won that event at 90-04.

On the boys' side, La Mirada High pulled out the victory in a close and hard fought battle between them, Orange Lutheran and King. Less than 10 points separated the three squads by the end of the meet. Terrance Brown of OL and Joe Alvis were first and second in the 400 and the only two to eclipse 53 seconds in the event. Damani Wilson and Isaiah Huss also of OL scored 14 points between the two of them in the 200. Jon McNey would help the La Mirada Matadores' cause by scoring 10 first place points in the 300 hurdles, at 44.17, while the two schools went first and second in the 1600 meter relay with OL on top at 3:35.97. But it was the field events that turned the tide, as LM scored in the high jump, pole vault, shot and discus to secure the victory.

Strong marks were seen throughout the day. Jared Drinkard of La Sierra emerged from the shadow of his teammates and All-State 1600/3200 runners Spencer and Dylan Knight, to shine in his own right (the point of a frosh-soph meet!) and won both the 800 and 1600, setting two new meet records in the process (2:02.68 and 4:38.05). Eric Vetter of Esperanza HS won the 200 in a time of 23.26. Keith Sousa of Hemet set a new meet record in the 3200 meters running a fine 10:14.37 in the midst of a classic Inland Empire warm afternoon. Even after dragging the final hurdle some ten meters in the preliminary rounds and still qualifying for the final, Wyatt of Canyon Springs went on to finish second in the Final at 16.48, just one-hundreth behind Darious Billberry of Hesperia. Edgar Panford of Cajon triple-jumped 41-08 to win that event, while Skylar LaCour brought new meaning to his name by winning the high jump at 6-0. Brandon Walker of King set at a new PR in the long jump, winning at 19-4.5.

So the third annual King Frosh Soph Classic was another great affair, with an international flavor to it that made it extra special. Finishing right on time and with an abundance of fine performances, the stage is set for an even better event next year.
