Before the official California Winter Track and Field Championships heat sheets are released ahead of this Saturday, let's see which athletes could be in position to defend their titles.
While a championship performance in February isn't always a reliable indicator of success later in the season, last year's Winter Champions proved to be the real deal. All seven champions qualified for the CIF State Championships, with multiple athletes ultimately earning state titles.
With entries still unofficial, the athletes below may seek a rare two-peat if they appear in this weekend's heat sheets. Once entries are finalized, we'll have a clearer picture of who's back to defend their crowns.
