Three Club Records in Three Weeks by Bantam Boy, Chase Hansen!

Chase Hansen with Meet Announcer Evan Mackay After Setting 400M Record

This may well be an all-time first for the 49 year old Newbury Park Track Club! Bantam Boy Chase Hansen, new to the sport of track and field this year (though an avid athlete), has set age group records in each of the first three meets of the 2017 season! Fantastic!!

At Heritage Valley on March 11th, Chase heated up the track on an already hot day with a 14.09 100 meters, breaking the previous record of 14.23 set by Julien Stokes in 2012. He also broke the 200 meter record with a 28.94, beating the previous Bantam Boys record of 29.77 also set by Julien in 2012.

The next week, March 18th, at Camarillo, Chase lowered his previous week's 200 meter time and club record to 28.86.

Finally, on March 25th, Chase tried the 400 meters for the first time, destroying the 43 year old record of 67.24 set by D. Brunette with a time of 65.20. Truly incredible.

Way to go, Chase! Keep up the great work! I have a feeling this is not the last time we'll be talking about records this season.
