Sheldon's relays have been killing it, putting up big times at both Stanford and Arcadia.
Justin Hazell (El Camino Real, right) put up a sub-9 3200 at Arcadia, giving him a commanding lead in those rankings - but so far this season, he has some competition in the 1600.
Rylee Bowen dropped a 4:48.92 for the full mile at Arcadia, putting her right back in the conversation as one of the top contenders in the state.
Moises Medrano leads the section in the 800, and Evert Silva leads in the 3200 - but their battle in the 1600 may turn out to be epic, especially when you consider their converted mile times.
Nu'u Tuilefano (El Camino) has lived up to her pre-season favorite status in the throws, especially the shot put, where she is dominant.

Seth Enochs (Yucca Valley) has a big jump mid-March, but he needs to replicate that in May to have a shot at the state meet.
On any given day, Tara Davis can be the best hurdler, long jumper, or triple jumper in the state. The only question that remains: can she be the best at all three on the same day?
