Akshay Vadul of Edison, who may skip the 1600m and focus on the 3200m, won the Group 4 title in 4:14.15.
Group 3 champ Ryan Beegle of Chatham has run 4:14.72, Ayush Saran of West Windsor Plainsboro South (4:17.12), Tage Mehta of Westfield (4:17.19), Micah Lawson of Rahway (4:17.57) are the next fastest runners in the race.
Also keep an eye on Nick Sullivan of Christian Brothers Academy, who defeated Boler to win the Non-Public A title.
