The atmosphere was electric at the 2025 Arrowhead Athletic Conference League Finals, where Grand Terrace High School (GTHS) athletes showcased their incredible talent, hard work, and dedication. With the cheers of supporters ringing in their ears, our athletes proved that their hustle and determination truly paid off, making this day one to remember!

Congratulations are in order for all our remarkable GTHS athletes! Each competitor gave their best, demonstrating not only their skills but also their spirit of teamwork. Their efforts on the track and field have brought pride to our school and community. 

A spotlight of praise shines on our outstanding champions who took the stage by storm. Those athletes include, Jalen Knight who clinched 1st place in both the 100m and 200m races, showcasing speed and precision that left spectators in awe. Jalen's relentless training and passion for running have undoubtedly paid off, setting a high bar for future athletes.

Alex Torrez soared to victory with an impressive jump of 18' 6" in the Long Jump competition. His hard work culminated in this incredible achievement, demonstrating the power of perseverance.

In a true display of teamwork, the quartet Ryan Babino, Kody Orr, Antonio Patterson, and Jalen Knight, captured 1st place in the relay. Their synchronized efforts and unbreakable bond were palpable as they crossed the finish line, celebrating a well-deserved victory together.

This day wasn't just about medals; it was a reminder of the community spirit that thrives at Grand Terrace High School. Friends, family, and classmates rallied together, fostering an atmosphere of encouragement and support. The pride in their voices, the enthusiasm in their cheers — it all contributed to the remarkable triumph of our athletes.

 The success seen at the league finals is a testament to the countless hours of practice, dedication, and sacrifice made by our athletes, coaches, and families. It reflects a community united by a passion for sports, celebrating the spirit of competition and the joy of achievement.

 As we cherish these unforgettable moments, let us continue to support and uplift our athletes as they embark on future endeavors. The future looks bright for Grand Terrace High School, and we can't wait to see where their journey takes them next!

 Congratulations once again to all our athletes on a job spectacularly done! Your hard work has not only paved the way for personal victories but has inspired us all. Here's to more incredible achievements ahead! Go GT !
