CANDIDATES
Dylan Jubak (Trabuco Hills): There's no doubt Dylan Jubak has been one of the most consistent 1600m and 3200m runners in the state, and this week proved he also has the chops to win big races. Jubak ran 4:07.38 for 1600m to win the 1 Mile at the Mt. SAC Relays, which makes him fourth in California.
Brandon Arrington (Mt. Miguel): BIG races are starting to mean BIG wins and BIG times for Brandon Arrington in 2025 after he achieved a double victory in the short sprint at the Mt. SAC Relays. Last week, he won the double at Arcadia, but he made Mt. SAC special with a personal record of 10.21 to strengthen his U.S. No.2 ranking for legal conditions.
Nicolas Alexis (Elsinore): The Mt. SAC Relays were a bounce-back week for the jumper, Nicolas Alexis, who made the best jump of his life to win the invitational long jump. He jumped 23.11 (+2.9) to secure the No.1 spot in CA for all-conditions and return to jumping 23s consistently.
Khaliq Muhammad (Pittsburg): A competitive Pole Vault competition led to a three-way tie at 17-1, but in the end, Khaliq Muhammad reigned supreme as champion. He is also currently ranked CA No.1 and U.S. No.9 with Kai Anderson of University City.
Brandon Andrade (Etiwanda): This sophomore sensation continued his incredible season after his first time running 37 seconds at the Arcadia Invitational. Brandon Andrade returned to the 300m hurdles at the Mt. SAC Relays to hit another personal record of 36.76 to strengthen his claim as the No.1 sophomore in the nation and the fastest long hurdler in the state. He also ran 14.13 in the 110m hurdles to reach the CA No.8 ranking.
