When considering a meet like the New Balance Indoor Nationals, it is quite difficult to give predictions of place and even if an athlete is participating in which events. Lists are constantly changing. From accepted entries to preliminary start lists to the meet schedule, meet directors and organizers are constantly tweaking them to ensure full fields and an efficient event. The difficulty level is magnified when dealing with athletes and people from all across the country. So, we will give you the links to access information on your own, and mention a few names who are listed as participating. Bottom line, this is NATIONALS! The best in the country and we have Granite Staters ready to mix it up!!!
The coolest aspect this year has to be the proximity of one of the national meets in that New Balance Indoor Nationals are taking place in Boston at the state-of-the-art facility, the TRACK at New Balance. This particular national meet has “blown up” in regards to participation numbers especially from New England! Why not? To actually have a national championship held in your backyard is a gift not experienced by New England scholastics in quite some time. Enjoy it! Let’s go!!!

Cox will begin his weekend as the mile leg on Coe-Brown’s (Black Bear Track Club) DMR with teammates Lano, Demas and Tyler Tkaczyk who will be leading off. The Bears find themselves in the fastest heat of 12 with hopes of gaining All-American status by placing in the top 6. With a top 4 time of 10:12 posted earlier this year, the Bears find themselves in the thick of things for sure. Cox comes back the next day in the 5000 meter Championship heat.

sophomore at Nike Outdoor Nationals where he posted a time of 14:35. Also in a Championship 5000 is OR’s Mackenzie Cook.
