Class AAA State Meet Preview: Repeat Champions?

St. Xavier team interview after a 2016 State Championship


I could flip a coin on each and every one of these placements. These guys are unreal. Each one of them have a time under 16:00 this season. In fact, Class AAA boys have FIFTEEN guys who have broken the 16:00 minute barrier on the 2017 season. I look for the fight of Tigers vs. Shamrocks to drive the times low. The bitter rivals know they are both in contention and do not want to be on the wrong side of the numbers. Runners like Austin Mathews and Dylan Allen will throw some public school flavor into the mix (thank goodness) and represent well. My prediction is that there are 10 guys within 20 seconds of each other. As they come back into the first paddock, the dog fight will be on and who can hang. This race is the one I am looking forward to the most for the uncertainty of the individual results.
