Top Returners - Class AA Girls

The following are the top 6 returning performers for each individual event in Class A. This listing could possibly include people who graduated. I did not have grade levels submitted for each athlete, so for the purposes of this list, I assumed that each person who did not have a year listed was returning. If you know of an athlete on the lists who has graduated, please let me know, and I will update the list.

100 Meter Dash
1	Germann, Allie		Winfield	10	12.40
1	Jackson, Anaiya		Bridgeport	11	12.40

5	McUmar, Blaire		Weir      	11	13.07
6	Unger, Savannah		Roane   	11	13.13
The top end is a little stronger than last year, but it isn't as deep as it took
a 12.93 to make this list last year.  There are 9 returners under 13.30.

200 Meter Dash
1	Germann, Allie		Winfield	10	25.58 
2	Jackson, Anaiya		Bridgeport	11	25.66 
3	Farrow, Shannon		Oak Hill	11	26.92

5	McUmar, Blaire		Weir     	11	27.14 
6	Unger, Savannah		Roane   	11	27.17 
This field isn't as deep as last year when it took 26.54 to make this list.  
Last year, there were 10 returners under 27.50.  This year, it's just 7.

400 Meter Dash
1	Adkins, Baylee		Winfield	11	 58.97
2	Grafton, Emerson	Bridgeport	10	100.81
3	Myers, Abigail		Oak Glen	12	101.57

5	Triplett, Sofia		Elkins    	12	101.89
6	Christopher, Erykah	East Fairmont	11	101.94
Again, the returning field isn't as strong as last year's returners.  There are
10 returners that were under 1:03, and 12 that were under 1:03.2.

800 Meter Run
1	Adkins, Baylee		Winfield   	11	214.78 
2	Christopher, Erykah	East Fairmont	11	220.95 
3	Floyd, Graylin		Philip Barbour	10	226.08

5	Fronaphel, Peyton	Winfield   	12	226.83 
6	Stanley, Mackenzie	Fairmont Senior	12	227.98 
The top end is stronger than last year, but the overall returning field isn't
quite as deep.  Aside from these 6, there is just one more that was under 2:30.

1600 Meter Run
1	Christopher, Erykah	East Fairmont	11	514.48
2	Adkins, Baylee		Winfield	11	521.24
3	Roberts, Anna		Winfield	11	533.56

5	Williamson, Emily	Wayne   	10	535.41
6	Stanley, Mackenzie	Fairmont Senior	12	536.06
Last year's returning group was exceptional.  Only two from this year's list
would have been within 10 seconds of last year's top 6 returners.  But that
makes it interesting as there are 4 more within 7 seconds of #6.

3200 Meter Run
1	Jacquez, Carlina	Fairmont Senior	12	1145.99
2	Harvey, Belle		Berkeley Spr.	11	1152.81
3	Grafton, Emerson	Bridgeport	10	1158.83
4	Miller, Gracie		Philip Barbour	10	1209.53
5	Williams, Audrey	Philip Barbour	10	1209.67
6	Campbell, Emma		Bridgeport	12	1214.95
There's a pattern here.  Again, the returning field isn't as strong as last
year's, when we had five returners that had been 11:51 or better.  There are
8 returners under 12:30.

100 Meter High Hurdles
1	Meade, Emily		Bridgeport	12	15.73
2	Barganski, Izzy		Oak Glen	11	16.46
3	Hudson, Emily		Winfield	12	16.61
4	Hinkle, Rylee		Winfield	11	16.77
5	Maier, Meredtih		Grafton  	10	16.84
6	Purvis, Mya		Keyser  	11	17.00
It's not quite as strong at the top end, but this field rivals last year's
returning group.  There are 9 under 17.30 and 10 under 17.50.

300 Meter Low Hurdles
1	Adkins, Baylee		Winfield	11	46.33
2	Meade, Emily		Bridgeport	12	46.99
3	Jackson, Anaiya		Bridgeport	11	48.33
4	Babkirk, Kiya		Oak Hill	12	48.89
5	Barganski, Izzy		Oak Glen	11	49.61
6	Purvis, Mya		Keyser  	11	49.73
The group of 6 is a bit behind last year's group, but the overall depth is similar
with 8 returners that went under 50 seconds last year.

1	Saunders, Sami		Point Pleasant	12	5.04
1	Wood, Elicia		Point Pleasant	10	5.04

1	Goodman, Dianna		Winfield	11	11.09
2	Saunders, Sami		Point Pleasant	12	10.01
3	Walker, Nikki		Winfield	10	9.00
4	Eddy, Kaleigh		North Marion	12	8.06
4	Beckett, Sara		Sissonville	10	8.06
4	Clutter, Macie		Liberty Harr.	10	8.06
4	Rogers, Hope		East Fairmont	12	8.06
A slightly deeper returning field than last year with two additional 
that cleared 8'0 last year.

Long Jump
1	Germann, Allie		Winfield  	10	17.0500
2	Meade, Emily		Bridgeport	12	17.0275
3	Saunders, Sami		Point Pleasant	12	16.0675
4	Stokes, Skye		Oak Glen	12	15.1150
4	Hinkle, Rylee		Winfield  	11	15.1150
6	Athey, Brook		Liberty Raleigh	12	15.0950
This group a stronger at the top end than last year's returners, but isn't 
quite as deep.  We do have 10 over 15'6 coming back and 14 that went 15'0.

Shot Put
1	Cottrill, Addy		Point Pleasant	10	37.0600
2	Boroski, Megan		James Monroe	12	36.0100
3	Winebrenner, Taylor	Nicholas  	11	35.0200
4	Butler, Kayla		Point Pleasant	10	35.0050
5	Holyfield, Madison	Robert C. Byrd	12	34.0750
6	McCullough, Madya	Bridgeport	12	33.0650
This is definitely a strong returning field than last year as only two from
last year's returner list would have made this year's list.  There are 9
that threw at least 32'0 and 13 that threw at least 31'0.

Discus
1	McCullough, Madya	Bridgeport	12	125.05
2	Cottrill, Addy		Point Pleasant	10	123.10
3	Travis, Kaylee		Oak Glen	12	116.06

5	Wilson, Tristan		Point Pleasant	11	105.03
6	Holyfield, Madison	Robert C. Byrd	12	102.03
As in the shot put, this is a strong returning field than last year.  However,
after these 6, there is only 1 other returner within 9'.

Remember that the Power Rankings allow an athlete to be in more than 4 events. The "returner rankings" also do not include any provision for relays. All 4 members of a championship relay time may be returning, but it is not reflected in the numbers above. These are only points from individual events.
