Vintage venue
|
|
|
|
Imagine it’s a Saturday night in the middle of the summer of ’97.
|
You and your closest friends are driving up Main Street in Corona to a show you’ve been waiting to happen since you saw the flier. You have a brand new roll of film for the 35mm camera you borrowed from your parents and have X’s marked on your hands from a black sharpie. Not only are you going to see Ray Cappo and “Better Than a Thousand,” you’re also going to see your favorite straight-edge band from Boston “Ten Yard Fight” at the Showcase Theatre.

Historic race
|
|
|
|
The Riverside City College track and field team continued to put up impressive numbers at the Mt. San Antonio College Relays on April 9.
|
Sprinter Briana Olukoju showed off in the 400-meter run. Olukoju shot out the blocks with speed and maintained second place throughout her race, finishing with a time of 57.70 seconds. That time was an improvement over her previous personal record (PR) of 59.17 seconds.
|
|
“The girl behind me, her PR was 58 so she passed me on the straight so I said, ‘Briana just calm down,’” Olukoju said. “In the last 100 I was just using her to finish and PR.”
