Mountain View – Morgan O’Laughlin highlighted the efforts of the San Benito track and field team Saturday at the elite St. Francis Carnival Invitational as the senior took home the Haybalers’ lone individual title with her toss in the discus.
O’Laughlin’s toss of 108-feet was 1 1/2 feet better than Milpitas’ Luisa Musika, who was the only other competitor to top 100 feet.
The boys team, which finished eighth in the team competition, was paced by the efforts of Rigo Vasquez and Josh Schroeder.
Vasquez finished less than a second behind Mountain View’s Robbie Reid in the 800 yard race. Reid’s time of 1:58.44 edged Vasquez’s 1:58.98.
Schroeder took third in the pole vault with his mark of 15-0. Los Gatos’ Nico Weiler and St. Francis’ Casey Roche both cleared 16-1.
The boys distance medley team of Frankie Rivera, Thomas Parcell, Eddie Trujillo and Vasquez snagged a top-five finish with its run of 11:13.22.
