The boys two mile field for New Balance Nationals Outdoor looks to have yet another fast field this year. With two guys in Ben Veatch and Jack Salisbury who have run sub nine for the 3200 and three others on the verge of breaking that barrier, look for this race to be a tight one.
Last years boys two mile saw 5 guys break nine minutes and ten guys run under 9:10. Could this year's field best that? Looks like we'll just have to watch to find out.
