Meet: Class AA Girls State Meet Predictions
Location: Cabell Midland High School
Date: To be held October 29, 2022
Predicted Class AA Girls Team Results
Winfield comes in as a huge favorite. It would be a major upset if anyone were to challenge them for the
top spot. I have a 45 point gap. The battle for 2nd has gotten interesting. I have Braxton in the spot,
but they have some injury issues that have hindered recent performance. There are several teams waiting in
the wings if Braxton were to stumble. Fairmont Senior appears to be the most likely to take the spot, but
Philip Barbour, East Fairmont, Shady Spring, and Liberty Harrison all have a shot at moving up. There could
be a lot of shuffling.
1. Winfield 49
2. Braxton 94
3. Fairmont Senior 110
4. Philip Barbour 123
5. East Fairmont 128
6. Shady Spring 142
7. Liberty Harrison 147
8. Nicholas 171
9. Wayne 198

Predicted Class AA Girls Top 25
This should be a nice battle between teammates. Rachael Withrow and Ava Ethridge square off every meet, and they
have each won the battle three times this season. I went with experience and the most recent win and gave the nod
to Withrow. Destiny Berryman could fight her way into the mix and is a very strong pick for 3rd. Claudia Moore
looks like a pretty solid pick for 4th. Things get interesting after that. I gave Addison Lloyd the nod for 5th
over Natalie Barr. Lloyd has won 3 of 4 meetings between the two, but Barr did win the most recent matchup.
Kailee Haymond is the pick for 7th. She's been a consistent performer. Olivia Williamson is tabbed for 8th and
was 5th last year. Addison Lease is in the 9th slot, but she was slotted 6th last year when she broke through for
the runner-up spot. I put Laura Cain in the 10th spot. Three weeks ago, I would have had her at #5, but her
Regional run only converted to #25. She's one of the injury issues for Braxton (at least judging from the taped
up hip at the LKC meet). If she's in good health, she moves up. If she's not, she probably fall outside the top
10. Candidates for a podium spot go at least 20 deep.
