The Illinois high school track season has once again featured elite speed on the relay circuit, and the Top 10 ranked boys 4×100-meter relay teams across Classes 1A through 3A represent the fastest squads in the state. Requiring flawless handoffs, explosive acceleration, and chemistry under pressure, the short relay consistently delivers some of the most electrifying moments of the season. From teams built on raw sprint talent to groups defined by precision and experience, each relay on this list has earned its ranking through consistency and high-level performances against top competition. Together, they showcase the depth, teamwork, and excitement of boys sprint relays across Illinois high school track and field.
These rankings are made using PR's of athletes in the 100m sprint. The 4 times are added together to create this ranking. We also include factors such as multiple people returning from a state relay from last year.
