The end of an era is upon us. The OG track crew is finally graduating. Seniors Milan Smith, Elena Saenz, Lainey Goldstein, and Paige Sorensen have been on the track team since freshman year, starting off their career by being the only all-freshmen 4×100 team in Division 4 to make it to CIF. Since their freshman year, the team has made a name for itself within the track community, becoming co-league champions in 2023 and continually having athletes make it to CIF. They have broken school records, won medal after medal, and earned patch after patch.
This past weekend, Lainey Goldstein, Paige Sorensen, Milan Smith, Justine Wilson ‘26, Sol Lee ‘24, and Jacqueline Liao ‘27, competed in the CIF Finals meet, winning runner-up in Division 4.
In order to honor all the many successes and wins of the track athletes who worked so hard this year, we decided to share the awards won:
- School record in the 4x100m relay, 47.50, set by Milan, Justine, Sol, and Paige
- School record in the 4x400m relay, 3:58, set by Lainey, Sol, Paige, and Justine
- 2nd place in D4 in the 300m hurdles, 45.80, ran by Paige

Milan describes, “I had a great season and really loved competing alongside my teammates. We have been blessed to be able to make it as far as we did in CIF.” Justine also says, “I have become close with these seniors the past couple of years and will miss them next year. I am so proud of all they have accomplished.” We have thoroughly enjoyed running these past 4 years. Thank you Rosary track for the amazing season we have had!
