The Great New York State Meet Preview - Indoors 2023



Boys 3200m

Event Info: 2022 Winner: Myles Hogan (Fordham Prep) 8:57.49, State Record: 8:50.40 (2-Mile), Meet Record (2000s): 8:57.49

State of the Action: Only four athletes have broken 9-minutes before the State and National Championships in the last twenty years, and Collin Gilstrap (Monroe-Woodbury) boosted that number to 5 at his Qualifier. It makes him a favorite for the event that saw an unflinchingly fast pace in 2022. Expect the same here, as New York has 11 athletes sub-9:20 before this race toes the line. Who's who of distance running in New York will be here, but the most interesting story line could be how well the PSAL trio is able to place. It would be their best showing ever, and one we're ready to watch.

The State Meet Record is only a year old, but if the field commits to a pace early, it could be well short-lived.
