NJ.com selects Princeton Day as the favorite to win the boys Non-Public B group championship this season, given their “strong returning core and a proven postseason pedigree.” Grayson McLaughlin leads the charge for the defending champions, along with Edward Letko, Alexander Chia, Luke Nolte, and Michael Zhou. (Track Mercer note: Letko will not be returning for Princeton Day this season.)
Wilberforce is one of two teams “Making Their Move” behind Princeton Day. They are led by Elias Edwards, Micah Brox, Cade Wilson, and Henry Jepson.
WWP North’s Lee ran one of her best races ever to extend her high school XC career. Lawrence’s Meth and Wilberforce’s Blanchard also delivered strong performances in Boston.
