The Irvine Invitational, annually one of the more-prestigious early-season events in Southern California high school track and field, is Saturday (March 8) at Irvine High.
Among those scheduled to compete is Aliso Niguel junior thrower Jaslene Massey. Massey threw the shot put 47 feet, 10 inches in the Eagle Invitational at Santa Margarita last month. That mark is the fourth-best in Orange County girls track and field history.
Also scheduled to compete in the Irvine meet is Woodcrest Christian senior distance runner Eyan Turk, a CIF Southern Section cross-country champion this past fall.
Newport Harbor versatile senior Keaton Robar is also entered. She finished eighth in the CIF State Cross Country Championships this school year and at the Eagle Invitational ran a personal-record 59.29 in the 400.
The meet begins at 7:45 a.m.
Admission is $10 for adults, $5 for active military and for children 10 and younger. Parking is available in the parking lots in the front and back of Irvine High.
