Servite, Sherman Oaks Notre Dame will be preparing to compete for next week's Southern Section Division 3 championships.
The Southern Section will hold its four track and field prelims on Saturday at four high schools, but lots of focus will take place at the Division 3 meet at Yorba Linda.
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.
'We're trying to qualify but also build upon all our races,' Servite coach Brandon Thomas said. 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. Other finals will be held at Trabuco Hills , Ontario and Carpinteria .
