Catsimanes Captures CIF-SS Division 1 Title in 3,200-Meter Race
San Clemente junior Hana Catsimanes stamped her name into Triton history on Saturday, May 11.
Catsimanes ran a time of 10:35.01 to outpace the field in the girls 3,200 meters and win the CIF-SS Division 1 title at El Camino College in Torrance.
Catsimanes is the first CIF-SS track and field champion for San Clemente since Rocky Fenton won the boys discus Division 1 title in 2014. It’s also the first girls title for San Clemente since Alex Dunne won her second of back-to-back 3,200-meter titles in 2009.
Catsimanes now moves on to the CIF-SS Masters Meet on Saturday, May 18 back at El Camino College. The top six finishers in each event advance to the State Meet at Buchanan High School in Clovis on Friday, May 24.
It would be Catsimanes’ second trip to state level competition this school year after qualifying for the cross country state meet in November.
Senior teammate Emilie Bennett finished her career at the CIF-SS Division 1 Finals with a sixth-place finish in the 400 meters and a ninth-place finish in the 200 meters.
