Boys Distance


1000m

Meet Record: 2:28.67     Last Year's Winner:  William Curran (Xavier) 2:37.14

The 1K sports pretty much a totally new look from last year's senior-dominated race, and Bristol Central's Mark Petrosky is top seed off of a 2:37.39 at Yale. Following are Hand's Connor Parthasarthy, Newington's at 2:39.40, Jonathon Volpe at 2:39.53, Xavier's George Luke at 2:39.98, and Wethersfield's Owen Gagne at 2:40.31.

1600m

Meet Record: 4:18.17     Last Year's Winner:  Samuel Whittaker (East Lyme) 4:23.00

The 1600m is another event with an almost entirely new field among the leaders than last year's finishers. Bristol Central's Nate DeAngelo is the leader at 4:30.06 off of a 6th at CCC., while his teammate Mark Petrosky may be the second favorite here at 4:31.90 though he is also top seed in the 1000. Hand's Dante Zucconi is next at 4:34.55, the Simsbury's Owen Wallenberg at 4:34.60, and Xavier's George Luke at 4:34.71.

3200m

Meet Record: 9:16.84      Last Year's Winner:  Robbie Cozean (Xavier) 9:26.18

Yet another new look event for this year is the 3200m where Newington's Sam Geissler is the leader at 9:33.72 off of a 3K conversion from Yale. Hand's Dante Zucconi is next at 9:40.87, followed by Bristol Central's oft listed duo of Mark Petrosky at 9:42.37 and Nate DeAngelo at 9:43.22, Xavier's Eamon Burke at 9:45.36, and Cheshire's Brendan Mellitt at 9:45.95.
