2026 South SJS Distance Track Highlights (CCAL Girls 2; TVL Duals; WAC Duals; CCAA 1; VOL Duals; Bob Pryor; MJC Inv; Stanford; Delta Mustang)

Many districts had this week off, some have next week. Never-the-less this week was heavy with league dual meet competition and some amazing marks.
 
Highlights for me this week:
Dominguez, Badea, Dittman

1. Four girls (Tyleah Badea, Anna Dittman, Roselynn Dominguez, and Jymena Nguyen Marquez) go sub 5:10 in the 1600m at MJC Inv.
2. Larson Wejmar (Turlock) goes 9:14.01 which lands him at #12 all time StanCo, #17 all time South SJS Distance
3. Hughson's Grace Benitez broke 5:30 for the first time in the 1600m
4. At a WAC tri-meet Beyer's Alex Mejia Hidalgo and Lathrop's Riley Gier go off in the 800 and both break 1:56. Alex 1:55.69 is #18 all time for StanCo. Alex also runs 4:20 in the 1600.
5. Anahi Ruiz Velasco (Beyer) runs 5:09.07 in the 1600m which is #24 all time for StanCo 
6. At a dual meet with Sierra, Patterson's Jaylyn Carrillo drops her 3200m time to 11:14.27 which is # 24 StanCo.
7. It was great to see Tyleah Badea back out competing although it was now in a blue Sierra uniform. She wasted no time PRing in the 1600 at 5:05.15 at MJC Inv, which is # 34 all time for South SJS Distance
