Girls track and field: Former Costa Mesa star Day qualifies for Olympics

June 30th, 2012, 11:43 pm by

Former Costa Mesa High star Sharon Day will make another appearance at the Olympics.

Day finished second in the heptathlon at the U.S. Olympic Trials Saturday at Hayward Field in Eugene, Oregon.

It will be the second appearance on the Olympic stage for Day, who was a high jumper on the U.S. team in the 2008 Olympics.

Day was one of the county’s most celebrated high school track and field athletes during her career at Costa Mesa. She won the CIF state high jump title in 2002 and 2003 and is the county and CIF Southern Section all-time high jump record holder. She set both marks by clearing 6 feet, two inches at the Trabuco Hills Invitational on April 5, 2003. It was the top clearance in the nation that season.

Why are they playing?

February 10th, 2012, 11:40 am by

No matter who wins or loses tonight’s Orange Lutheran-JSerra game at Irvine Valley College, a 7 p.m. game that decides who in the Trinity League finishes in third place — the league’s final guaranteed playoff berth — both teams will go to the playoffs. There will be plenty of at-large berths in their divisions, for JSerra in Division 4AA and Orange Lutheran in 1AA, and both are high enough in their divisional rankings to get an at-large berth (JSerra is No. 11 in 4AA, OLu is No. 3 in 1A).

But the coaches, JSerra’s Joedy Gardner and Orange Lutheran’s Chris Nordstrom, don’t want to leave it to chance.

As Nordstrom said, “Weird things can happen. It would be difficult to face our players, their parents and people at our school if we somehow did not get into the playoffs because we decided to not play this game.”

A couple of third-place games today that really could matter:

Costa Mesa vs. Godinez at Calvary Chapel, Orange Coast League, 7 p.m.

Los Amigos vs. Santiago at Bolsa Grande, Garden Grove League, 4 p.m.
