The Berkeley High girls track team got another taste of non-league competition over the weekend, competing against runners from all over the state at the 33rd Arcadia Invitational. 

As expected, the BHS sprinting contingent left with several first-place finishes, and strong showings in virtually every event. Katrina Keith and Aisha Margain set the tone for the ’Jackets, winning the 100m and 200m sprints, respectively. Keith and Margain also anchored Berkeley’s relay teams, helping the Yellowjackets to a first-place finish in the 4x100m, and a second-place showing in the 4x400m. 

T’carra Penick, also a part of both relay teams, made her individual mark by taking third in the 400m, while Simone Brooks contributed a fourth-place in the 100m hurdles.
