La Sierra senior Reggie Wyatt looked like an elite runner going up against a bunch of weekend warriors in the boys’ 300-meter hurdles, winning in 36.88 seconds.

Millikan’s Jonathan Sanders was second in 37.68 and Dana Hills’ Mikey Fischetti was third in 38.14.

Wyatt, who earlier won the 400-meter dash, will have a short break--one event, to be exact--before competing in the 200. Can he go three for three? L.A. Cathedral’s Randall Carroll, who owns the fastest 200 time in the nation this year, might have something to say about that.

Ben Bolch has been a Los Angeles Times staff writer since 1999. He is serving his second stint as the UCLA beat writer, which seems fitting since he has covered almost every sports beat except hockey and horse racing. Bolch is also the author of the recently released book “100 Things UCLA Fans Should Know & Do Before They Die.” He previously covered UCLA basketball from 2010-11 before going on to cover the NBA and the Clippers for five years. He happily traded in gobs of hotel points and airline miles to return to cover UCLA basketball and football in the summer of 2016. Bolch was once selected by NBA TV’s “The Starters” as the “Worst of the Week” after questioning their celebrity journalism-style questions at an NBA All-Star game and considers it one of his finer moments.
