The Tartans turned in outstanding results last Thursday.
The Tartan boys and girls track & field teams both were crowned Pacific Hills League Champions this past Thursday. Both teams have won league titles in 3 different leagues over the past 5 years, combining for a total of 10 team league titles. There will be 28 athletes moving on to CIF Prelims, participating in 33 events.
League Co-MVP Heidi Beshk had another fantastic performance on the track, winning all three events in the 800m, 1600m, and 3200m. Beshk ran a personal best in the 1600m (5:18.81) and the 3200m (11:34.24). Arianne Bruckner would also go on to win the 300 hurdles race with a personal best time of 49.99, which ranks her No. 7 all-time in school history. The girls would cap off the night with a thrilling 4x400 performance, shaving off over 11 seconds in the race to finish 2nd and qualify for CIF.
Aleah Berengian had another big day in field events, winning a pair of individual league titles in both the shot put and discus throw. Berengian threw 26-6 ½ in the shot put and 86-10 in the discus. Berengian’s marks set her apart as the Female Field League MVP.
On the boys side, Anthony Gallo won the discus with a personal best throw of 114-2 while Ryder Shaw won the triple jump with a jump of 40-7.
On the track, Zach Causee turned in crucial team points with wins in the 1600m and the 3200m. Lucas Monge, the league Track Co-MVP, would have a great day winning the 110 hurdles and 300 hurdles along with being part of the 4x400 winning team. Cameron White came in 2nd in the 400m, dropping over 4 seconds from his personal best with a time of 52.24, ranking him No. 6 all-time in school history.
"I am so proud of this team. What makes this league title so special is that everyone on the team contributed in some way in order to win," said head coach Edgar Vazquez. "I'm thrilled to see how the level of this team keeps rising with every league we are entered in. We have a team that is not only well-balanced in all track and field events, but they also work extremely hard, and as a coach, that is all you can ask for. I must also thank my coaching staff for being such great coaches to this team. There is no doubt we wouldn't be as successful without them coaching all these athletes and bringing the best out of them."
