-Batavia is a deep team made for a state championship as well dual and invites. Strength wise they have Jonah Fallon in the sprint attack, Quintin Lowe in the distance, and now a presence in the field events with Jalen Buckley in the triple jump and Nicholas Fortino in the pole vault. Both lads lead the state respectively. Ahh, we did not mention the Bulldog's relay prowess, did we? They will be here in the 4x4, 4x2, and 4x1.

Minooka is still a team that is in the state championship title talk. What was a question mark, the distance area is now a tremendous asset? The Indian's 4x800 relay is IL#2 (7:55.53) after a big win at the Bob Cohoon Invite. Emerson Fayman and Zachary Balzer are the go-to guys. The sprints well is still very solid led by Tyler Colwell

Hinsdale Central is now in the picture on the strength of Daniel Watcke's dominance in the 400 and 800. He has a strong supporting cast and that should take the Red Devils far. Watch out for dangerous 4x4 and 4x8 units which will yield strong dividends.
