Saturday's Division I, II and III Track and Field Preliminaries proved to be a difficult trek for the Del Rio League as only two athletes qualified for advancement to Saturday's CIF-Southern Section Divisional Championships at Mt. San Antonio College in Walnut.

Dorantes led the charge by winning his heat in the boys 3,200-meter run at the Division II Prelims at Moorpark High School.

His time was the third best in the Southern Section this past weekend.

1. Riley Sullivan, Trabuco Hills, Division I - 9:14.63
2. Rex Nelson, Newport Harbor, Division II - 9:18.523
3. Luis Dorantes, Whittier, Division II - 9:19.12

Congratulations to Luis and to the DRL's only other qualifier, Pioneer's Michelle Macias.

The senior finished ninth in the girls 400-meter dash with a time of 58.86.

There were also two other local qualifiers from Division II.

La Mirada senior Stephanie Felix was eighth in the girls 3,200 (11:11.22) while senior Cameron Gillett qualified in both the boys long jump (23-4 3/4, second) and triple jump (44-7, seventh).

The area's only other qualifiers came from the Division IV prelims at Carpinteria.

Cantwell-Sacred Heart's Khamari English qualified in both the 200 (22.56, sixth place) and 100 (11.04, eighth). St. Paul's quartet of Dusty Brown, Ryan Cadwalader, Eddie De Dios and Pete Romo all tied for first in the boys pole vault with marks of 12 feet while Daniel Trejo advances in the 300 hurdles (42.35, fifth). Whittier Christian's Kyle Clark also won the boys 300 hurdles (39.86) and took third in the 110 hurdles (15.69) while the Heralds boys 400 (43.86, fifth) and 1,600-relay teams (3:34.62, eighth) also earned nods to Mt. SAC.

Possible alternates for Saturday include:

10th place
Natalie Galvan (El Rancho) first alternate in the girls 300 hurdles (44.94)- DI
Alex Valdez (Schurr) first alternate in the boys long jump (21-6)- DI
Felix (La Mirada) first alternate in the girls 1,600 (5:10.67)- DII

Migraine is een bonzende hoofdpijn die meestal voorkomt aan één kant van de schedel. De pijn is heftig en houdt 4 tot 72 uur aan.

Replica Leather Handbags have been one of the necessities of life of women since the beginning of the story. It is important to order items that are often used synonymously, filed in the hand and found objects into a bag of decorative scissors (17th century) that today¡¯s mobile phone and credit card is required.
