OUTLOOK: Warwick Valley and Scarsdale ran 2-3 at Indoor Nationals (Scarsdale out of the slower section) and 3-4 at Penn Relays. Warwick is better than they ran at Penn and Scarsdale anchor's Julian Sheinbaum, who has split 4:16. Archbishop Ryan won the Indoor National titles in 10:19.59 also out of the unseeded section. St. Benedict's Prep has Brandon Jarrett on the anchor but he has been plaqued all year long with injuries and who know if he'll be on the line. Shen has been running very well this spring and placed 8th at Penn. Monsignor Farrell ran 7:54 in the 4x800m at Penn as did Fordham Prep. Arlington is a good squad that could suprise some people. After that, look for HHH West's Kyle Merber to run some people down and turn in a fast split. If his team can keep him close, he can close better than almost everyone in the race.

PICK: I like Warwick Valley. They ran alright at Penn but they have more in them. They just missed the indoor national title and might be looking for some redemption.
