When it comes to the girls’ 1,600 meters, there’s Christine Babcock and then there’s everyone else. And we’ve got the video to prove it.
Babcock, a Woodbridge senior and the two-time defending state champion and state-record holder in the event, easily won the Southern Section-Toyota Division II title Saturday at Mt. San Antonio College with a time of 4:49.32. Her time was three seconds better than that of runner-up Hillary Hayes of Edison and nine seconds better than the rest of the field.
Check out the end of the race and see for yourself how much time passes before third-place finisher, Rachel Ngu of Northwood, enters the frame.
