Boys  Sectional Preview

Note: As I say every year, this is just a projection. It's pretty much everyone's best Saratoga State Park times and some adjustments where I felt it was needed. I have no knowledge of runners that are out injured so I included just about everyone that has run but I have left out some runners that have been out for multiple weeks. Class A was much more difficult this year since the Suburban Council cancelled their championships.

Boys: Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D

Boys Class A - 1:30pm

    

What to Look For: A huge tossup between Saratoga, Guilderland, and Shenendehowa. Right now it is too close to call but should be a great race. Individually, Saratoga's Shea Weilbaker is the favorite with Niskayuna's Marty Dolan and Guilderland's Nicholas Soldevere battling against him.
