Host Central Valley High School handled undermanned Ceres High in varsity track and field last Wednesday.
"All of my kids looked real good today," Hawks head coach Mike Reynolds said. "They were motivated."
Central Valley's boys improved to 2-1 in the Valley Oak League following their 91-44 triumph over the winless Bulldogs.
"It's just another thing we beat them in," senior Sean McLeod said.
"It's always important to do good because it's such a big rivalry," Ceres High sophomore Brandon Jolley said. "If we had more people, it would have helped out. But you can't do anything about it."
