The narrative: Eureka continues to be the team to beat. Aden Sears and Micah Senior are going to have to remain strong in their open events: 200 and 400. The relays are right there with the best of them.
E. St. Louis is coming slowly but surely after putting resources into football. Devontae Ford is the state leader in the 300H and class leader in the 200. He is awfully strong in the short hurdles race too. Don't forget about relays. The Flyers are traditionally good in that department as well.
Mascoutah and Barry Evans are synonymous in terms of getting the job done. Evans is a top threat in the throws.
Urbana is the state's most slept on team. They have a fast 4x1 and the #1 long jumper in the state Daniel Mboyo admitted that he was inspired by all of the top times that he is witnessing on the leaderboards.
