Preview The USATF Youth Championships are a national competition with entry based upon qualifying standards for each event and has the same age divisions as the USATF Junior Olympic program. Bantam (10 and under), Midget (11-12), Youth (13-14), Intermediate (15-16) and Young Men/Women (17-18). Among the anticipated matchups and appearances at the high school level are: Intermediate (15-16 year olds)
- Rising hammer star Conor McCullough CA is seeded over 100 feet farther than his nearest competition
- A meeting of US Junior National champions in the intermediate girls 1500, with Junior 1500 winner Jordan Hasay CA scheduled to square off against Junior 5k champ Emily Sisson NE. Sisson is also scheduled to return in the intermediate girls 3k.
- Californian Karynn Dunn has reached 20-06.50 in the long jump as a soph, and is hoping to extend that in Lisle.
Young Men & Women (17-18 year olds)
- A pair of provocative one-lappers, as Chanelle Price PA, on a tear recently in the 800, steps down to race 400 meters against established quartermiler Meshawn Graham OH and 400H specialists Dalilah Muhammad NY and Ryann Krais PA. The Young Men's 400 is equally interesting, with hurdles stars William Wynne GA and Reggie Wyatt CA (with sub-47 cred of their own) eschewing the barriers in favor of a flat 400 against 46.76 speedster Danzell Fortson TX.
- In the young men's 800, US#2 Dylan Ferris NC looks to erase recent championship disappointments against a field that includes 1:51.94 talent Jamar Jones PA
- Candyce McGrone IN is aiming for titles in the 100m and 200m after finishing 4th in both at US Junior Nationals. She'll have to get past Erica Alexander TX in the 100 and NON surprise sprint sweeper Chalonda Goodman GA in the 200.
- The young men's HJ is shaping up to be a showdown between last year's intermediate boys' champion Frankie Hammond FL and young men's runner-up Jonathan Clark CA.
- Missouri thrower Brittany Borman brings the top seeds in the young women's discus, shot put and javelin, and is also slated to contest the heptathlon.
