After a sensational sophomore campaign that included two PSAA Championships (110 & 400 hurdles), a NYSAIS State Championship (400 hurdles), and a shattered school record (400 hurdles), Colin Scanlon was poised for another big year in the hurdles. Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic proved to be a barrier too high to clear.

Regardless, Scanlon entered the season as the 11th fastest junior in America and 2nd fastest in New York according to MileSplit USA:

1.	Bryce McCray	Greater Houston, TX	52.69
2.	Mario Paul	Rutherford County, KY	53.86
