Who's going to Penn Relays this weekend?


La Salle's Jack Salisbury anchoring his team to the win in last year's distance medley relay.

The must-see race of the high school events appears to be the distance medley relay, which features defending champion La Salle Academy..  Three schools have potential to win the coveted Penn Relays "wheel" and break 10 minutes in the race with the Rams, Concord Carlisle (Mass.) and Loudoun Valley (Va.) and indoor mile record-holder and sub four-minute guy, Drew Hunter, at the anchor. La Salle will have its fearless threesome of Jack Salisbury, DJ Principe and Matt Bouthillette taking care of the 800m, 1,200m and 1,600m legs. Concord Carlisle will be anchored by senior Thomas Ratcliffe, who ran 4:02 for his school's third-place finish at the recent indoor nationals.
