Redondo Nike Track Festival 2018

Great Oak senior Jaime Navarro is one of CA's most versatile throwers with a strong chance to make the State meet in both the shot put and discus throw. Navarro, who will attend San Jose State on a football scholarship, is among the many top athletes in SoCal expected to compete this weekend at the Redondo Nike Track Festival. 

Great Oak junior Fatima Cortes, a rapidly emerging distance star, who won the CIF-Southern Section D1 title in cross country and recently put up an impressive 15-3K double sweep at the CA Winter Championships, is among the many top athletes in SoCal expected to compete this weekend at the Redondo Nike Track Festival. 

Is the future of pole vaulting in CA a freshman at Great Oak? Only time will tell if young Jack Wright can leave an indelible mark on pole vaulting in the state. For now, he's barely a year into learning the discipline and already cleared 14-1 at the CA Winter Championships. Wright was fifth at that Feb. 17 meet at Arcadia HS and was the only freshman among 12 who cleared a height at the long-delayed event. He took three jumps at 14-7. No, he's not Sondre Guttormsen, the amazing Norwegian national at Davis Senior HS who cleared 18-feet indoors this winter. But the sky could very well be the limit for young Mr. Wright. Jack Wright will be among top athletes from SoCal and across the state scheduled to compete Friday and Saturday at the Redondo Nike Track Festival. You can follow MileSplitCA's coverage of the Redondo Nike Track Festival on live stream. Here's more information.

Yucaipa senior Asani Hampton, the CA leader in the 100m, won the short sprint in wet conditions at the Redondo Nike Track Festival. Hampton's winning time of 10.78 was well under his state-leading 10.53 posted a week before at the Saddle Up Invitational at Vista Murrieta. Hampton, who is headed to Michigan, has an all-conditions 100m best of 10.40 (3.8) posted in placing fourth at the CIF-State meet last June. In this interview, Hampton touches on his goals for the season, his reasons for choosing Michigan and his future goals on and off the track.Related:100m race videoAsani Hampton athlete profile
