NOTABLE

Roman Calczynski of Sepulveda shoots for his second consecutive NASCAR Southwest Tour victory tonight when he heads a field of 40 drivers in the Pepsi-Cola 100 at Shasta Speedway in Anderson, Calif.

Calczynski scored his first Southwest Tour win since last July when he captured Sunday’s 7-Up 100 at Sears Point International Raceway in Sonoma. He held off a final-lap charge by Jon Paques of Albuquerque, N.M., to win the race by one second.

The victory was worth $2,887 and boosted Calczynski into second place in the Southwest Tour season point standings behind Mike Chase of Bakersfield.

Lisa Rood, a softball player for North Hollywood High, is one of 20 finalists for the Scholar-Athlete of the Year award presented by the CIF and Reebok.

The winners, a girl and a boy, will be announced Monday. Reebok will donate $1,000 to each winner’s school.
