Big Jumps Make Vince & Karlly the Top Performers of Week 10

Week 10 saw the end of the dual meet season, and our first league finals.  But even in this relatively quiet week, we saw three All-Time SGV performances, two new SGV seasonal leaders, and four individuals & three relays gain All-SGV-15 status.

Karlly Feng - on her way to 11-06!

Karlly Feng – on her way to 11-06!

Temple City junior Karlly Feng is our girls Athlete of the week.  Karlly has added a foot to Pole Vault PR in just the last two weeks!  She got 11-00 in her dual meet vs San Marino, and was rained out at the SGV’s – where she was the top performer last year while winning the Frosh/Soph division.  And then Thursday vs. South Pasadena, Karlly cleared 11-06!  She now ranks #6= All-Time San Gabriel Valley!

Lauren Anderson (So, California) continues to move from strength to strength.  At her dual meet vs. Santa Fe the SGV Champ once again broke her school discus record with a 124-11 throw, and she now ranks #27 All-Time SGV.

Vince Porter - double Prep League champ!

Vince Porter – double Prep League champ!

The boys Athlete of the Week is Polytechnic senior Vince Porter.  Vince won both the 100 & 200 at last Friday’s Prep League Finals, earning All-SGV status in the former event.  But this honor is also belated recognition for his 6-09 high jump at last month’s Russell Cup small schools meet. That jump ranks Vince #19 All-Time SGV, and leads all of the CIF Southern Section for 2015.

Also at the Prep Finals, Barrett Weiss (Sr, Flintridge Prep) found the form that took him to the Masters meet last year with 15-06 leap in the Pole Vault.  That jump was a school and league record, and makes him #11= All-Time SGV and #5 in the Southern Section for 2015.

Note: Two revisions in the All-SGV lists this week.  First, we are only using auto-timed results in the sprints and hurdles.  Second, a number of strong 300 hurdle results have been dropped after we learned that the top heat at the Covina Invitational had a timing failure.
