San Clemente track and field athletes benefited from familiar surroundings in the Triton Invitational on Saturday, March 19, at San Clemente High School.

Hawkes posted a pair of personal records in her two top sprints to maintain her spot as one of the county’s premier runners.

Hawkes posted a wind-aided time of 24.66 seconds to win the girls 200-meter race by nearly a full second. She was the county leader in the 200 entering the weekend. Hawkes also took second in the 100-meter sprint with a time of 12.16 seconds, just 0.19 seconds behind Elizabeth Hatton of Sage Creek.

The top five runners in the 100 each set a personal record, and five of the top six finishers in the 200 also set personal marks.

Schwab was a county leader entering the weekend in the boys high jump. While he didn’t hit his best personal mark, Schwab still won the high jump with a clearance of 6 feet, 2 inches to beat the field by two inches. Schwab also finished fourth in the 110-meter hurdles with a time of 16.37 seconds.

Bennett edged out the field in the boys pole vault. The top four vaulters all cleared 13 feet, 9 inches, but Bennett did so in fewer attempts to take the win.

On the girls side, three other Tritons took podium positions.

Senior Portia Kipper took second in the high jump with a clearance of 5 feet, which tied the top mark by Hannah Wons of Orange Lutheran. However, Wons won with fewer attempts.

Junior Kylan Brown was fourth in the triple jump with a leap of 31 feet, 2 inches. Sophomore Chloe Waters also took fourth in the 300-meter hurdles with a personal record time of 49.3 seconds.

On the boys side, there were five podium finishes.

Senior Brennan Dougherty took two of those finishes in the triple jump and the high jump. Dougherty finished third in the triple jump with a personal record at 40 feet, 5 inches. He also tied for fifth in the high jump with a clearance of 5 feet, 8 inches.

Senior Brendan Byrne finished second in the long jump with a personal-record mark of 21 feet, 5.5 inches. Marcus Harris of Vista won the event at 21 feet, 9 inches.

In the 800-meter race, junior Taj Clark and sophomore Jackson Brownell finished third and fourth, respectively. Clark posted a personal record of 2:04.5, and Brownell was clocked at 2:05.3.
