On Pi Day, Saturday, March 14, 2026 Acalanes hosted the largest Bob Warren Invitational since the early 2000s. The meet ran on schedule and was a tremendous success, thanks to the work of our parents, students, and volunteers who stepped up to make it happen.

We also won both the boys and girls 300 hurdles, with River Lockwood running a 40.54 and Olivia Kempwinning her first ever 300 hurdles race in 50.93.

Our boys 4×100 relay also took first, with Matthew Schwarz, Ilias Kaplanes-Jones, Jackson Boselli, and RiverLockwood running a speedy 42.56. To close out the meet, our boys 4×400 team of Julian Hood, Matthew Schwarz, Harry Zimmerman, and Benjamin Mickelson took first with 3:29.86, braving the heat.
