Defending CHSAA 600-meter champ Payton Hazzard is back for St. Anthony's, but he's not alone. Sprinter Warner Cooley and pole vaulter Michael Brunoforte are just a few of the many talented athletes St. Anthony's has returning. Jump specialist Cameron Black, shotter Chris Hand and distance specialist Thomas Diliberto should make the Friars one of the most complete teams on Long Island.
Sprinter Hunter Burrell and jump specialist Seitu Solomon head up a St. John the Baptist team that can compete with anyone. Brandon Camenzuli, Matt Zampariello and Christian Rojas will head up the Cougars' distance efforts. Dom Safina and Pat Collins (pole vault), Carey Adams (shot) and Tom DuPlessis (sprints) are also back to lead the Cougars.
Distance specialists Will Slattery and Thomas Awad could take Chaminade a long way this season. But they won't be the alone as Eric Haslbauer also figures to make an impact in distance races. Eric Grein (hurdles/sprints), Nick Greico (middle distance), John Halloran (shot) and Sam DeLuca (shot) will anchor the remainder of the events for the Flyers.
Kellenberg will have strength with hurdlers Timothy McKnight and Dylan Rosser, sprinter Luke Wigatow and 600 specialists Joseph Maulo and Adam Santiago.
