Track Wraps Up Busy Weekend In SoCal

2014 Mt. SAC Relays Results

2014 Beach Invitational Results


On Saturday, the Urban Knights concluded their trip down south with the Mt. SAC Relays and Beach Invitational.

Walnut, CA – The biggest highlight on day two of ART U in the Mt. SAC Relays was Dinesha Bean's performance in the 100m hurdles. In a small field of some of the best hurdlers in the world, the senior showed she could compete on that same level and turned in a 13.27. The mark is fractions of a second off the NCAA Automatic Qualifier, but immediately shoots Bean up to #2 in the NCAA Division II in the event.

Additionally in that same competition, Urban Knights alum Vashti Thomas produced a 12.99 while serving Nike.

Cerritos, CA – Down closer to Long Beach State, Academy of Art also sent a contingent to the Beach Invitational at Jack Rose Track. There, Ronald Spears, Jr. found himself just 0.02 from his career best in the 100m dash, offering a 10.70 en route to fourth place out of 80 sprinters.

ART U will be in action in the Drake Relays and Penn Relays (Apr. 24-26) and Pacific West Conference Championships (Apr. 25-26) next weekend.
