We’re less than 48 hours away from the start of the 2012 state meet at Cicero-North Syracuse. A ton of Long Islanders are heading upstate, and there are more than a few who could come away with a title.
So what should you be watching for through both days of the meet? Which events are going to feature the hottest competition? Which events do someone from Long Island have the best chance of taking home state gold?
That’s where this handy preview comes in. Below, I break down each event by division (if applicable), let you know which Long Islanders are competing in what event, and give you a quick thought about each event. (Note that the seeds are still open to change, but if anything does change I’ll update accordingly.)
We’ll start with the girls. (I’ll post the boys preview tomorrow evening after I settle into the comfort of my hotel room.)
