   Looks like the 2009 Arcadia meet was a good one for Kern County. Most of the schools and athletes
that attended had season PRs and/or some eye opening competition to get them ready for the upcoming
championship season. I would like thank
RunnerSpace.Com for their amazing coverage of the meet!

   At Arcadia, there are many different event divisions. Saturday is the NIGHT to compete at. The top races
are the invite races on Saturday night followed by the seeded races. The Saturday day events are next and
in some events, the top performers get to compete in the Saturday night events. If one competes on
Saturday night, you are one of the best in the state and hence one of the best in the nation.

   Friday night (my favorite) is the "Rising Stars" field events and the "Burnin Batons" relays. Often there
are four heats of each event.  The fastest is the invite, followed by seeded, rated and open.

   Of course, just competing in any event at Arcadia is a huge accomplishment and is often the highlight of
a track & field athlete's season. In many of the Friday night events, it is easier to make the valley meet then
get into Arcadia. Below is a school by school recap of how their athletes did at Arcadia. Many of the links
below go to video of the event or complete results of the event.

  • Shafter as usual had the best showing at this meet. Anna Jelmini (12) continued to dominate the throws with
    wins in the shot and discus. Her teammate Lacey Rasley (10) won the open shot put competition and got to
    throw in the night invitational meet too. Shafter High senior Anna Jelmini threw a personal-best 185 feet, 5
    inches in the discus Saturday at the Arcadia Invtational. Jelmini, the national leader in the event, broke the
    meet record by 5 feet. She also won the shot put (51-11/2), equaling a meet record. Modesto's Suzy Powell
    holds the national girls high school record of 188-4. Powell set the mark in 1994.
  • Liberty's Amanda Klinchuch also competed in th Saturday night invite in the pole vault and came in 12th. Erica
    Wilcox (11) came in third in her heat of the open 400 on Saturday and Marty Affentranger (12) came in

    Lewis smoked a 56 opening 400 and got them into third with a lap to go. On the backstretch of the last lap he
    moved them into second place but was passed on the homestretch and ran about a 2:02 also.
