With the Pacific Coast Athletic Conference championships fast approaching, the San Bernardino Valley College track and field teams traveled to Cerritos College for the Cerritos Invitaional and one last tune-up before starting championship season.

And the Wolverines showed that they are peaking at the right time.

Yoselin Canseco won the women's 3K steeplechase, dropping her personal best in the event by 35 seconds, stopping the clock at 12 minutes, 1.38 seconds for the win. It is the 10th best time in the event in the state this year, and the second-best time posted by an SBVC athlete in the event all-time. Later that afternoon, Canseco posted another personal best, finishing the 800 meters in 2:29.54, finishing second behind teammate Sara Jaquez, who finished at 2:28.43.
