18. Brodey Hasty... How Fast Can He Go For 1K?
(AAU Boys 1K)
In one of the final AAU special events we will get to see the nation's best miler (Brodey Hasty) on the track in his first 1K of the year. Expect him to crush this race in a sub 2:25 performance. The national record (2:22.28) is definitely not out of contention either in a race that should see multiple sub 2:30 performances.
19. Pickerington Central... Are They The Smart Pick?
(Boys 4x400)
Finally in the last race of normal meets, it will be first at the Showcase, we will have Ohio State Champions Pickerington Central ready to rumble in the 4x400. They return nearly all their firepower from last year and have entered in the meet with a seed time of 3:18 just ahead of Parkland's 3:19. Entries are open for another two weeks so expect some very fast times.
20. Everyone's Favorite... The Mile RaceWalk!
After a long day last year the entire facility erupted during the one Mile Race Walk. The same will be true this year as the crowd gets on their feet for this awesome eight lap race.
