Acalanes' Trevor Rogers (long jump), Campolindo's Pinkie Schnayer (shot put), Bishop O'Dowd's Brandon Rush (triple jump) also win state crowns.
When the curtain closed Saturday night at the California Interscholastic Federation state track and field championships in Clovis, four individuals and one relay team stood tallest among Bay Area News Group athletes.
Pittsburg’s 4×100 relay team of Jamar Searcy, Michael Stallworth, La’Rico Tezeno and Tim Edwards opened the meet with a sizzling sprint around the Veterans Memorial Stadium track, posting a time of 40.77 to edge Long Beach Poly by three-tenths of a second.
The East Bay school wasn’t done.
Later, Jathiyah Muhammad captured Pittsburg’s second state title, winning the girls pole vault in 13 feet, 9 inches.
Muhammad’s brother, Khaliq, took second in the boys pole vault with a mark of 16-4, which was four inches behind winner Kai Anderson of University City.
Acalanes’ Trevor Rogers leaped 24-3 ¾ to capture the long jump one year after placing fourth in the event.
The Cal-bound two-sport standout, who helped Acalanes win a state football title in December, edged Wilcox’s Tyson Bonilla, who took second in 24-1.
Campolindo’s Pinkie Schnayer also stood atop the medal stand after she finished first in the shot put in 47-3 ¾. Aja Johnson of Notre Dame-Sherman Oaks was second in 46-8 ¾.
Bishop O’Dowd triple jumper Brandon Rush celebrated a state championship in the triple jump after he posted a mark of 47-5. He went 48-1 ¼ in Friday’s trials, which ranked second heading into Saturday’s finals.
