Stacked HS fields lining up for Armory Track Invite
By Doug Binder, DyeStat Editor
Tucked away inside one of the biggest college indoor meets of the season, the high school and junior events at the Armory Track Invitational have long been one of the highlight components of the meet.
The college portion of the ATI has shrunk a bit, although big name programs such as Wisconsin, Arizona, Ohio State, Mississippi State, Duke and Miami will be at the two-day meet, Feb. 5-6.
There are a handful of pro races, an international 4x200 relay event, and developmental sprint races for post-collegians.
There is a lot going on, but the high school/junior races are once again loaded. Setting aside Drew Hunter, who will run against a pro field in the men's mile on Saturday, here is a look at the high quality fields assembling for prep events.
