Florida Relays 2026 Preview: High School Stars, NCAA & Pro Races to Watch

The Big Dogs (Kids) Are Here 

Bullis Track and Field has arrived in full force early in the outdoor season, and they’re bringing serious firepower.

Leading the charge is Olympic gold medalist, U20 world record holder, and national record holder Quincy Wilson, who’s set to compete in the 400m. He’ll be joined by Cameron Homer in the same event.

On the hurdles side, Kassidy Hopkins and Solai Russell will line up in the 100m hurdles, while standout freshman Mya Arrendell continues her breakout start in the 400m.

Elsewhere, Nia Armstrong enters the 100m hurdles fresh off a personal best of 13.33 at the FSU Relays, making her a legitimate threat in this field.

Keep an eye on Camryn Dailey as well. She’ll compete in the Olympic Development division of the 200m and 400m and could be on personal-best watch.


Early NCAA Glimpses

This meet also offers a very early look at some NCAA contenders.

Programs like Auburn Tigers track and field, Florida Gators track and field, Tennessee Volunteers track and field, and South Carolina Gamecocks track and field will all be in action on both the men’s and women’s sides.

While it’s still early, and not every contender is here, the relays will serve as a baseline for where these squads stand heading into the outdoor season.

For South Carolina, Akala Garrett will compete in what many consider her signature event, the 400m hurdles, while JaMeesia Ford is entered in the 100m. This meet could offer an early read on the Gamecocks’ trajectory.

Meanwhile, many of the Florida Gators track and field will open their seasons at home, always a potential advantage.


Professional Races to Watch

The men’s 200m is shaping up to be one of the most intriguing races of the weekend.

Notable entries include Alison dos Santos, Trevor Bassitt, Makanakaishe Charamba, Joseph Fahnbulleh (also doubling in the 100m), and Steven Gardiner.

In the 400m, Jenoah McKiver is one to watch.

On the women’s side, expect a strong showing in the 200m from Maia McCoy, Niesha Burgher, and Jadyn Mays.
