AAA Boys Individuals
Comments: Spooner keeps his #1 position that he has held all season since the preseason. Several strong individual performances at regionals meets from Tessema, Vial, Mujezinovic, Lorusso, Fernstermacher, Mellis, and Saunders help them make jumps or appearances in the rankings. The regional champions from the Eastern Region in Eddie Judge (6th) and Northwest Region in Thomas Porter (9th) are not shown that much faith or more so their regions with their rankings heading into the state meet.
