HIGH SCHOOL TRACK ROUNDUP : Dameworth and Reyes Win Twice for Agoura

Agoura High, the defending Southern Section 1-A Division champion, won nine of 16 events to dominate the Frontier League track and field finals Friday at Nordhoff High.

Bryan Dameworth and Ryan Reyes each won two events for the league-champion Chargers in the nonscoring meet.

Dameworth took the 1,600-meter run in 4 minutes 30.7 seconds and the 3,200 in 9:15.8. Reyes won the 300 intermediate hurdles (41.8) and high jump (5 feet).

Agoura sprinter Kevin DePew timed 53.3 in winning the 400 and also ran a leg on the Chargers’ victorious 1,600-meter relay team (3:34.9).

Other Agoura winners included Omar Castillo in the 110 high hurdles (14.7), Matt Francisco in the long jump (20-10 1/2) and Mike Schick (2:06.9) in the 800.

Jayme Dinovitz of Calabasas improved his season best in the shotput by a foot, winning with an effort of 54-9. Ventura County pole vault champion David Copp of Nordhoff, who has cleared 13-8, needed only a 12-9 effort to win Friday.

The first three finishers in each event advance to the Southern Section 1-A Division preliminaries to be held May 12 at Arcadia High.
