It’s been a slow year in San Diego Section track and field, although business picked up a little in the last couple invitationals, Arcadia and Mt. St. Antonio.
Two more weeks of dual meets, plus the annual Escondido Invitational, will take girls and boys competitors into league trials, the first step toward the state meet at Buchanan High in Clovis, June 3-4.
Cathedral’s Dani Johnson, the Section record holder at :13.88 in the 100 hurdles and :41.34 in the 300 barriers, has missed almost all of the season with injuries.
It would take a remarkable comeback at this point in the season for Johnson to return to form. She also also ran a leg for the Dons’ 4×400 relay team that set a Section record of 3:47.63 last year.
