Covina Secures League Titles!
The Northview dual meet always brings out the best in both school for this neighboring rivalry. Fortunately for the Colts, Covina was able to pull off victories at each level sealing the league championship for the boys varsity, girls varsity, and boys fs teams. The boys varsity matchup came down to the final two events and CHS needed to either capture the 4x400 relay or place at least 3rd in the triple jump to win. Both scenarios happened as Covina won the relay and secured a 3rd place mark in the triple jump.

At a meet that put the best of the best from the SGV together in one meet, Covina once again made its mark on the San Gabriel Valley. Both girls teams placed 3rd, while the boys varsity took 7th, and the boys frosh-soph team took home the first place title among the 30 schools represented. This will mark the 4th invite in a row that the boys team has taken home first place in either BV or BFS levels.
