San Diego Section boys’ 2018 best track and field performances through last week’s Mt. San Antonio meet, which was not held on the once-bucolic junior college campus in Walnut, instead moving about 40 miles West to El Camino College in Torrance.
San Diego marks and their rankings in parenthesis are compared below to the best in California, as supplied by Athletic.net. Listed all-time San Diego marks are for meters, which the U.S. went to in the early 1980’s.
Some of the “all-time” metric performances were bettered by performances measured in yards and feet, such as races from 220 yards to 2 miles, which are longer than those from 200 meters to 3,200 meters. The 100-meter distance in decidedly longer than 100 yards, by almost 10 yards.
Girls marks will be published later this week.
