E. St. Louis Could Dominate 2A Boys Relays Scene This Year


4x200 Relay

2019 State Champion: Olympia Fields (Rich Central), 1:26.68

Key Teams: East St Louis, Rock Falls, Monticello, Tinley Park, Mascoutah, Carbondale, Rantoul, Decatur (McArthur), Providence Catholic, Norridge (Ridgewood), Eureka, Plano, Troy Triad, Peoria Manual

Breakdown: This race could be all Flyers once again as they return three from an all-state quartet. We hear they have plenty of horses in the stable for what many call a B team relay.

Tinley Park, Mascoutah, Rock Falls, Carbondale, and Rantoul all return three members from units that made the state final. All would have to bring their A game as this race returns six finalists who only lost one member from last year's squad.

Someone always tends to emerge around sectionals time, but you may be able to gain an early indication around Indoor Top Times about which schools will set the track on fire in the 4x200.
