Triple Jump
Three guys have gone past 45-0 this year, and two are obviously the top seeds Ese Onakpoma the Class L winner and Mehki Tyson Slaughter the S champ. The third guy is 23rd seeded Justin Thuotte, but his big leap came in early April. MM winner Holden Speed and M champ Jayden Villafane will also be in the mix here.

High Jump
Indoor Open champ and US #3 Timothy Watson set the state record on Wednesday in Class L, and big question here is whether he can now smash his SR by going maybe 6-2. L runner-up Ese Onakpoma has gone to 6-8, so this is an event that will be getting the eyeballs.
