Track & Field

For much of the season, Navajo Prep’s Elijah England has run on his own. The junior has a knack for pulling away from the lead pack at the start of every race. On Saturday, he got out pretty quick as he cruised to another New Mexico 3A boys state crown.

Lightning struck a second time for Laguna Acoma harrier Tagoya Pedro. The LA senior capped his prep career with his second consecutive New Mexico Class A-2A state cross-country crown at Albuquerque Academy on Saturday morning.

In the quiet border town of Del Rio, Texas, a young Navajo runner is leading on the track and in his community.

For the last four years, Symond Martin has had his eyes on this cross-country season, and this season all eyes are on Symond Martin.

Sixteen-year-old Jazelle Thompson had quite the surprise on Sunday morning. The Shiprock native exceeded her expectations by winning the women’s 10K race at 2025 Narbona Pass Classic. The soon-to-be junior toured the demanding course in 49 minutes, 39.790 seconds, turning in the 30th fastest time among the 338 runners registered.
