The Great State Meet Preview: Indoors 2019




Girls 1500m

Event Info: 2018 Winner: Katelyn Tuohy (North Rockland) 4:23.38, State Record: 4:07.05, Meet Record: 4:23.38

State of the Action: Katelyn Tuohy (North Rockland) opted for the distance double at State Quals, where in the past she narrowed down her races to one.  If we had to guess, the 1500m would be her focus here.  She's already proven her 3k talents in season, and the relatively weak meet record of 4:23.38 is easy fodder for an athlete of Tuohy's talent on the OB track.  Even relaxed, Tuohy is a good ten seconds ahead of the next best athlete here, so Tuohy is playing with house money, and can risk a big effort.  If the race is lights out, the question would be how low could she go under 4:20.  Mary Hennelly (Suffern) leads the field behind her, in what could be a blanket finish.
