Franklin High School's Track & Field Seniors
With two more track meets to go in this season, Franklin's chances are bright in qualifying for the California State Track & Field Championships on May 31st through June 2nd. Premiere Freshman athletes have paved the way in building Franklin's track program to champion status.
Jorden O'Neal has covered great distance in the long jump this year. Last Friday Jorden broke the school record again by jumping 18' 9 1/4 inches at the CIF Division 1 Section Championships. The 4x100 meter relay team comprised of freshman's Ifunanya Ezimora, Carolynn Johnson and Chinyere Dike ran a blazing new school record time of 4:02.39 in a very exciting race. Chinyere Dike ran a fast 100 and 200 meters not far behind Monterey Trail's sprint sensation Esther Higgwe. Jorden and Chinyere have an excellent opportunity of qualifying for the State Meet. Another Freshman, Jacklyn Hughes has broken many Varsity and Frosh/Soph records from the 800 meter through the 3200 meter races.
The freshman at Franklin will provide the school and track fans with a bright and wonderful future of great track performances.
