Lex Young of Newbury Park (SS) was the fastest senior boy on the Woodward Park 5K course, running one of the fastest times in history on the iconic layout. Young's time to win the Division II title equals his twin brother Leo for the third fastest ever at the State Meet, one second faster than the mark set by his older brother Nico in 2019. Stanford-bound Lex Young's time also ranks as the fastest ever for a boy in Division II (beating Nico's record from '19) and the third-fastest ever by a senior boy. He led Newbury Park to a fourth consecutive CIF-State division title while setting D-II records for points (24) and time (74:34).
