Meet: Class AAA Girls State Meet Predictions
Location: Cabell Midland High School
Date: To be held October 29, 2022
Predicted Class AAA Girls Team Results
Morgantown is again the overwhelming favorite. Getting their top 5 all on the podium
would not be much of a surprise. I have them winning it by a whopping 50 points. Cabell Midland
is the favorite for the 2nd spot, but University could fight for that spot if they run well or
if Midland is a little off. Buckhannon-Upshur would be the most likely to sneak into the top
3 with Jefferson and Hurricane needing something significant to happen to snag one of those spots.
1. Morgantown 31
2. Cabell Midland 81
3. University 103
4. Buckhannon-Upshur 123
5. Jefferson 142
6. Hurricane 147
7. Parkersburg 182
8. Woodrow Wilson 208
9. Greenbrier East 235
10. Martinsburg 267
11. George Washington 283
12. Hampshire 286
Predicted Class AAA Girls Top 25
Irene Riggs is the favorite to make it three in a row. She missed a little over a month of the season,
returning only for the Regional. Her return was a dandy...dropping a sub-17:00 at the Regional.
Audrey Hall is a pretty solid pick for the 2nd spot. Things get really messy after that as a number of
girls could easily claim the next spots. I went with Madeline Gump for 3rd, having had the best regional
run of the bunch. I dropped 3rd ranked Lydia Falkenstein into the 4th position. Savannah Pritt jumps
into the 5th position coming off a pair of really strong runs at the MSAC and Regional Meets. Claire
von Boetticher is slotted into the 6th position, but she just beat Gump at the OVAC meet before Gump
got her revenge at the Regional. She also just beat Falkenstein at the Regional. Amelia Summers is
placed into the 7th spot, finishing just behind Falkenstein at the Regional. Ella Hardin gets the shaft
a bit, dropping into the 8th spot. By rankings, Pritt, von Boetticher, Summers, and Hardin would be
expected to finish within 0.5 seconds of each other. Wouldn't that be a finish to see. Anna Lester is
tabbed for the 9th spot. She was just 1 second behind Summers and 2 behind Falkenstein at the Regional
meet, so upward movement is possible for her as well. Adelyn Tager takes my 10th and final podium
spot. I feel like there is a gap after #14, and anyone beyond that climbing into the top 10 would be
a surprise.
The predicted top 25 are as follows. If you want to know where you are picked, just
send me an e-mail, and I'll tell you.
