Looking Ahead to the Hispanic Games

The 18th edition of the Hispanic Games — presented by the U.S. Navy — will take place this coming weekend — Jan. 7-8 — at the New Balance Track & Field Center in The Armory.

The Games are high in both quality and volume as more than 5,000 high school athletes from the Eastern seaboard are set to perform on indoor track's most prolific stage.

Saturday will start with the straightaways as dash and hurdle trials begin at 9 am. The finalists in those events will return to the infield at 11:30 am.

At the same time, the boys' and girls' mile runs will take place on the oval in the morning session. As the day proceeds, the events will alternate between the boys and the girls, culminating with the 4x400- and 4x800-meter relays late into the evening.

Sunday will be a showcase for the younger set as freshmen and sophomore races and relays run from 9 am to about 3 pm.

Here is a look at the complete schedule:
