Kenwood and Whitney Young will match up again, but Kenwood likely has the upper hand in the outdoor version of the City finals.
This features the best sprint races during conference week. Asia Thomas (Sr., Kenwood) and Jaliyah Shepherd (Sr., Kenwood), are the Broncos' brass, but watch out for Vionche Terry (Sr., Phillips) with major marks recently. Mariyah Robinson (Fr.) and Jakiya Baker (Sr.) of Simeon have been strong all season and Robinson continues to improve.
Whitney Young will show their strength in the field, with the help of Claudia Ouimet (Jr.), Simone Bernard (So.), and Layla Bonilla (So.). Bernard and Ouimet add to loaded hurdle fields that are headlined by Jordan Hamb (Fr., South Shore International) and Kennedy Ross (Sr., Lindblom).
With Nikki Chopra (Jr., Whitney Young) out, the distance events are headed by Jade Lavallee (Sr., Whitney Young), Lucia Ton-That (So., Northside), and Josephine Dziedzic (Sr., Payton).
