"Servite, with its outstanding sprinters, and Sherman Oaks Notre Dame, with sprinters, hurdlers and shotputters, will be trying to qualify their best athletes in preparation to battle it out at the Southern Section championships on May 16 at Moorpark High."
"Servite looks finally healthy. Robert Gardner, a sprinter who was hurt all season, ran 10.87 seconds last week in the 100 meters in his comeback race. He'll be one of four Servite athletes trying to qualify in the 100. Another previously injured athlete, Jaelen Hunter, has also returned and will be in the 400."
"Notre Dame's Brayden Borquez recovered from his spill at the Arcadia Invitational to win the 110 hurdles last week at the Mission League finals. JJ Harel, the defending state champion in the high jump, is also gearing up to score points in the long jump and triple jump."
The Southern Section will conduct four track and field preliminary meets on Saturday across different high schools, with significant attention on the Division 3 prelims at Yorba Linda High School. Servite and Sherman Oaks Notre Dame are the primary contenders, each bringing strong sprinting programs and additional depth in events like hurdles and field competitions. Servite has recovered from injuries, with sprinter Robert Gardner returning to competition after missing time and posting a 10.87-second 100-meter time. Jaelen Hunter has also returned from injury for the 400 meters. Notre Dame's Brayden Borquez won the 110 hurdles at the Mission League finals, while JJ Harel, the defending state high jump champion, will compete in multiple jumping events. The Southern Section championships will be held May 16 at Moorpark High. Other division prelims occur at Trabuco Hills, Ontario, and Carpinteria.
