Rated Boys
California High (Whittier) wanted into the Sweepstakes race, and they weren't shy about saying so over the weekend:

The thing is, they may have been right. With three sub-15 guys already this season, the Condors won the Great Cow Run varsity race, and they are predicted to win big here according to our database. El Toro has the best returning squad among the Rated teams, with Warren and Beaumont close behind. San Juan Hills and Fountain Valley have both started off the 2015 season well, and would like to validate that with a good performance in this race. Don't put it past the Great Oak "B" team to be a threat in this race - the Wolfpack put 30+ returning runners under 5 minutes during a monstrous track season, including a "second seven" that were all between 4:32 and 4:37 (not to mention 15 guys faster than 10:15).
California High is powered by the trio of Angel Aguirre, Cisco Cuellar, and Julian Romero, and they very well could go 1-2-3 in this race. William Hua (Fountain Valley) will try to break them up, as will Andrew Witt (Buena), who has the top 3 Mile PR in the field. Another interesting pair of runners to watch will be Allen Siegler and Niko Chapman of University City.
