5 Events to Watch: Boys Relays

1. Boys Division 1 4x800m Relay

Finals: 5:00pm Friday

This won't be like Pennsylvania's 4x800m extravaganza at their state meet, but this could be a very memorable one for Ohio.  Five teams have already gone sub 7:50, and another handful are ready to break through that barrier.  Could this be the year that we see all 16 teams break the 8 minute barrier?

2. Boys Division 3 4x200m Relay

Prelims: 10:40am Friday
Finals: 9:55am Saturday

This is going to be one close relay.  Eleven teams advanced from their regional meets within 1.09 seconds of each other.  It may take a 1:30 effort just to make it to the finals on Saturday.  This race is just way to close to call for anyone.

3. Boys Division 2 4x200m Relay

Prelims: 2:40pm Friday
Finals: 1:25pm Saturday

Just like the Division 3 4x200, except for a little bit faster.  Eight teams advanced from their regional within 1.16 seconds of each other.  It very well could take a 1:29 effort just to make the big show on Saturday.  Another race that is too close to call.

4. Boys Division 1 4x400m Relay

Prelims: 7:25pm Friday
Finals: 6:40pm Saturday
