MHS Athletes Dominant in Track & Field

Malibu High running sensation Claudia Lane captured two more victories last Saturday. 

The sophomore long distance athlete won the women’s 1,600- and 3,200-meter races at the Malibu Invitational. Lane claimed first place in the 1,600 with a time of 5 minutes, 10.99 seconds and was victorious in the 3,200 due to her time of 10:38.62. 

In both races, Lane outran runners from schools such as Brentwood, Calabasas, California City, Chaminade, Heritage Christian, Hueneme, Foothill Tech, Santa Paula, Vasquez, Vistamar and more. 

Lane dominated the competition last fall during a cross country season that featured her winning race after race, winning a CIF title and becoming one of the top high school runners in the country. She has two other 1,600-meter wins and one women’s 800-meter win this track season.
