A-AA Girls Individual Predictions
100 M 1. Ciara Chic DuPont 2. Pam Nettles Richwood 3. Cindy Meadows Gauley Bridge 4. Amanda Shiflett Tygarts Valley 5. Amy Miller Bridgeport 6. Kristin Roman Wheeling Central Ciara Chic only recently discovered she could run this event. Nettles, as the defending champ, has a legitimate shot at upsetting Chic.
200 M 1. Andrea Perry Valley Fayette 2. Pam Nettles Richwood 3. Patty Mallon Charleston Catholic 4. Hope Bishop-Riggs Weir 5. Mandy Weese Tyler 6. Amy Miller Bridgeport After a year on the softball field, Andrea Perry is back where she belongs...on the track as one of the fastest girls in West Virginia. Nettles is again a threat to win.
400 M 1. Ciara Chic DuPont 2. Patrice Smith Weir 3. Chayna Johnson Doddridge 4. Kelley Moran Doddridge 5. Jamie Sindledecker Petersburg 6. Erica Tuckwiller Greenbrier West Chic comes in as the heavy favorite, but the top three could all go under 60 seconds.
800 M 1. Jessica Taylor Fayetteville 2. Kelley Moran Doddridge 3. Virginia Waugh Midland Trail 4. Tiffany Smith Gilmer 5. Sherri Flohr Grafton 6. Sarah Peard Magnolia No one has shown they can run with Taylor, but Waugh ran a 2:23 last year, and Moran owns a 2:23 relay split this year.
1600 M 1. Jessica Taylor Fayetteville 2. Kayla Lester Winfield 3. Erin Boggs Braxton 4. Heather McDaniel Grafton 5. Sherri Flohr Grafton 6. Sally Holtgrewe Williamstown Taylor should dominate the event. Her top time of 5:13 is 18 seconds better than anyone else in the field.
3200 M 1. Jessica Taylor Fayetteville 2. Erin Boggs Braxton 3. Heather McDaniel Grafton 4. Sally Holtgrewe Williamstown 5. Jessica Tusing East Hardy 6. Missy Spangler Ritchie After Taylor, this is really a toss up. Remember, Taylor barely edged Tusing at the state cross country meet.
100 HH 1. Heidi Mercer Tyler 2. Nicole West Magnolia 3. Andrea Lambert South Harrison 4. Jessie Fisher Moorefield 5. Kristin Winland Williamstown 6. Janelle King Williamstown The absence of Jackie Dight makes this a wide open race. Mercer and West should duel for the victory. West won their regional meeting, but Mercer will prevail at the state meet.
300 LH 1. Jackie Dight Weir 2. Andrea Lambert South Harrison 3. Emily Smith Magnolia 4. Andrea Saucerman Tygarts Valley 5. Jessie Fisher Moorefield 6. Virginia Waugh Midland Trail This is one of the biggest locks of the meet. Dight dominates this event.
4x100 M 1. Valley Fayette 2. Tyler 3. Tygarts Valley 4. Weir 5. Bridgeport 6. Doddridge The combination of Andrea Perry leading off and Kristen Newman running anchor is too much to overcome.
4x200 M 1. Weir 2. Valley Fayette 3. Doddridge 4. Wheeling Central 5. Winfield 6. Oak Glen Weir has a dominant 4X200 team, too much for Perry/Newman to overcome.
4x400 M 1. Weir 2. Doddridge 3. Magnolia 4. East Hardy 5. Grafton 6. Midland Trail Weir and Doddridge should be a titanic battle (and this event could decide the Team Title). Weir has two girls that can run a 60 second leg, and so does Doddridge. Whoever has the stronger other two legs will win the event.
4x800 M 1. Doddridge 2. Midland Trail 3. Magnolia 4. Grafton 5. Charleston Catholic 6. Ritchie This really should be a two team race. Doddridge appears a bit stronger and has a shot at going under 10 minutes.
Shuttle 1. Magnolia 2. Weir 3. Williamstown 4. Doddridge 5. Grafton 6. Tyler Any of the top 3 teams could come away with the win. Magnolia has the edge based on their earlier success.
L Jump 1. Cindy Meadows Gauley Bridge 2. Andrea Perry Valley Fayette 3. Pam Nettles Richwood 4. Jann Duhnam Paden City 5. Jennifer Haddix Grafton 6. Nicole West Magnolia Everyone on this list has jumped over 16' this year, but Meadows has jumped over 17'...and she's done it twice.
H Jump 1. Heidi Mercer Tyler 2. Chrystal O'Dell Valley Fayette 3. Mary Greene Richwood 4. Heather Quinet Magnolia 5. Tiffany Sutton Doddridge 6. Ginny Keener Grafton Despite being upset at the regional meet Mercer is a heavy favorite having jumped 5'6 earlier in the year. If Greene is at full strength following her lengthy injury absence, she is a threat to win.
Discus 1. Vickie Swords Magnolia 2. Allison Ritz Liberty Harrison 3. Jennifer Tant Winfield 4. Theresa Melko Bridgeport 5. Lucinda Huffman Ritchie 6. Jocelyn Fiedorczyk Madonna Swords gets the nod based on consistency, but each of the first four have a shot at winning. Ritz has the top throw in the state. Tant has set personal bests in her last two meets, and Melko owns a few victories over Ritz.
Shot 1. Alicia Dickson St. Marys 2. LeAnn Lemon Williamstown 3. Michelle McGinnis Winfield 4. Cassandra Barker Buffalo 5. Kristi Jones Pendleton 6. Lucinda Huffman Ritchie We're picking the Freshman to win this one. She's been improving all year and has set personal bests in her last two meets (conference and region).
P Vault 1. Lisa Davis Doddridge 2. Jennifer Jenkins Winfield 3. Ashley Dunn Parkersburg Catholic 4. Bethany Sitachitta Williamstown 5. Teresa Mason Williamstown 6. Karen Kellar Doddridge Davis is a heavy favorite in this event, owning a vault nearly a foot higher than any other competitor. Jenkins and Dunn each have 9' vaults under their belts, and Dunn has a head-to-head victory over Davis.
