Track & FieldAthletes Continue Winning

By Head Coach Blaze Fimbres & Assistant Coach Brad Stolz

Our Track and Field athletes continued their winning ways during their March-April meets. League Meet #2 fell victim to the rainy weather and was postponed five days, eventually taking place in much better conditions on March 27 at St. Paul HS. In the JV 1600 race, Bosco Tech took 1st and 6th, with junior Khiru Khan leading. Senior Christian Perez won the varsity 400 and is league leader with his time of 52.4 seconds. Christianalso won the varsity 800 with sophomore Danny Cendejas coming in second. At this point, Bosco JV was 1st in the league, and Varsity 4th.

The next meet was the Bears Classic - LA County Championships at Warren High School in Downey on April 1. Danny finished fifth in the frosh/soph 800 race. Christianwon the Varsity 800, becoming LA County Champion with a time of 2:00.23. On the throwing field, junior Jake Ayala came in third in varsity discus with a toss of 116’9”.

League Meet #3 was on April 5 at St. Paul. This was a very good meet for all, but especially for three athletes. Jake won varsity discus. Danny won the 800 and 3200 races. Distance runner Christiancame in fourth in a varsity sprint race - the 200 in 24.09, and he won the varsity 400 and 1600. Our Varsity stayed fourth in a league of eight teams.

The San Gabriel Valley Championships took place at the Covina District Stadium on April 15. Participation in the meet is by qualification only. This year, we had 19 athletes qualify, while we had only 7 qualify last year quite an impressive change! Danny became the San Gabriel Valley Frosh/Soph Champion by winning the 1600. He came in #2 in the 3200. Christian finished 5th in the varsity 1600 in 4:29.07, and gained the San Gabriel Valley Championship by winning the 800 in 1:59.56. Back on the field, Jake made final cut in Varsity discus. Sophomores AriaParvinjahand JohnLugo were in the top 20 in frosh/soph discus. Ariawas in the top 15 in the frosh/soph shotput with a throw of36’7”.

There were too many PRs (Personal Records) made to list. All in all, these were good meets for our Bosco Tech athletes!

American Red Cross Club Blood Drive is a Success!

Thanks to our American Red Cross club, students and parents who donated blood during the recent blood drive on campus. Partnering again with Cedars-Sinai, the club’s efforts paid off!

Overall, forty three donors donated a total of 37 pints of life-saving blood. That brings the Tech’s total for the year to 56 pints.

In the U.S., someone needs blood and or platelets every two seconds, and every donation can help save more than one life.

Spring Sports Wrap Up

By Athletic Director Vincent Nolasco

Dear Bosco Tech School Community,

We had a very busy April month with five of our spring sports finishing up their seasons. All five spring sports: baseball, golf, tennis, volleyball, track and field all competed their best and showed great improvement throughout the season.

Baseball finished either in second place in the Santa Fe league under first-year Head Varsity Coach James Luna. The baseball team qualified for the CIF-Southern Section Division 7 playoffs. The official brackets will be released on May 7. During league play, we defeated two ranked League Division 7 opponents (#2nd ranked St. Genevieve and #9th ranked Cantwell). In addition, there was at one time in the league season, four out of the six teams in the Santa Fe league ranked in the top 10. We were ranked #9 the following week after defeating ninth ranked Cantwell. Tiger playoffs bound for 2019. Good luck to our baseball team in the CIF-SS Division 7 playoffs! Track and Field We have, as of now, two participants qualified for the CIF-SS Division 4 Track and Field Prelims on Saturday, May 6th. Junior, Jake Ayalawas league champion in discus.
