In track and field:

Arcadia Invitational--The Long Beach Poly boys and the New York City Randolph girls turned in the most noteworthy performances on the opening night of the meet at Arcadia High.

Poly won the 4 x 1,600-meter relay in 17 minutes 42.11 seconds when Bryan Durham edged Luke Llamas of Canyon Country Canyon in a stirring homestretch battle.

The times by Poly and Canyon were the second- and third-fastest in the nation this year.

Randolph won three of the five girls’ relays, running a nation-leading 8:58.30 in the 4 x 800, and timing 1:40.12 in the 4 x 200 and 4:00.01 in the sprint medley.
