Four milers from Pennsylvania will be headed to Boston's Reggie Lewis Center on January 28.

Bishop Shanahan's Josh Hoey, Germantown Friends' Nick Dahl, Germantown Academy's Abbe Goldstein, and Unionville's Anna Juul were selected to compete in the Junior Mile at the New Balance Grand Prix in two weeks.

Check out the full list of selections over at MileSplit.

Goldstein, is the lone PA returner from last year's Grand Prix. She placed sixth in the stacked field in a 4:52.08 (still her indoor PR). This year, Goldstein ranks PA#2 and US#4 in the mile after winning at the Hispanic Games in a time of 4:52.45 (that qualified her for the Millrose Games). She also PA#1 in both the 3000 meters and the 2 mile this season.

Juul sits at PA#1 and US#3 in the mile. The senior ran 4:52.24 to win at the AT&T Hall of Fame Invitational off XC fitness last month, which qualified her for Millrose. 

Hoey is US#5 in the mile. He won the AT&T Hall of Fame Invitational last month in a time of 4:17.63, which qualified him for Millrose. Hoey also won the mile at the Penn Relays last spring in 4:11.36. Dahl has an indoor PR of 4:17.18 in the mile from Millrose last winter. Outdoors, he's run 4:14.66 in the mile.
