Just like last season when North Kingstown won the boys’ team title based on its placement in the final event, this year’s state meet should prove to be equally exciting with Bishop Hendricken the favorite and the defending champion Skippers, Classical and a very-talented East Providence squad as legitimate contenders. How will the meet turn out? Here’s a preview of the top athletes in their respective events.

With their outstanding depth, the La Salle Academy girls look primed for the ‘four-peat’ at Saturday’s state championship. But as anyone knows, anything can happen on track & field’s biggest stage. Will a new team take home the team plaque? Time will only tell. Here’s a preview of the top athletes in each event.

Maddy Berkson (1,500), Alva Hicks (discus) and Marthaline Copper (hammer) each earn victories for Purple in 104-66.4 win over the Rams.
