SBVC Women's Track & Field hit the road again for their sixth event of the 2016 season as they sent 7 student athletes to the Santa Barbara Easter Relays at Santa Barbara City College. SBVC participated in the 4x200 meter relay, 4x400 meter relay, 800 meter sprint medley and 5000 meter run.
SBVC finished in 3rd place in the 4x400 meter relay as the team put up a time of 4:12.23, dropping 1.66 seconds off of their previous effort. Freshman sprints runner Savanna Perez (Rialto W.A. Carter) opened things up, then handed off to sophomore sprints runner Aisha Johnwell (Etiwanda H.S.), who gave it to freshman relay runner Mariah Gonzalez (San Jacinto H.S.) and then sophomore relay runner Cara Littlefield (Grand Terrace H.S.) was handed the anchor leg.
Freshman distance runner Alyssa Hebb (Redlands East Valley) finished the 5000 meter run with a time of 20:03.70, which was good enough for 2nd place and 3.88 seconds ahead of her nearest opponent.
SBVC finished 3rd in the 800 meter distance medley with a time of 2:05.79 and unlike most track relays, each member of the team runs a different distance. Running the 100 meter leg was freshman sprints runner Ky Fantroy (San Bernardino Indian Springs), running the other 100 meter leg was Littlefield, running the 200 meter leg was Johnwell and grabbing the anchor 400 meter leg was Perez.
SBVC finished in 4th place in the 4x200 meter relay as the team put up a time of 1:53.81. Johnwell opened things up, then handed off to Littlefield, who gave it to Perez and then sophomore hurdler Briana McField (Rialto W.A. Carter) was handed the anchor leg.
