A-AA Girls Individual Predictions
100 M 1. Maggie Robinson Martinsburg 2. Rosalyn Cary Capital 3. Lindsey Stewart Hampshire 4. Jenny Rayburn Hurricane 5. Kris Morris Jefferson 6. Adrienne Fitch Cabell Midland Robinson gets Cary on the lean.
200 M 1. Jenny Rayburn Hurricane 2. Maggie Robinson Martinsburg 3. Lindsey Stewart Hampshire 4. Rosalyn Cary Capital 5. Kris Morris Jefferson 6. Jada Davis Keyser A now-healthy Jenny Rayburn gets the nod to win what should be a tight final.
400 M 1. Kris Morris Jefferson 2. Melissa Hamrick Roane 3. Zaia Wharton Elkins 4. Amanda Hall Fairmont Senior 5. Ariel Davis Elkins 6. Emily Quinlan Morgantown This is one of the races we're looking most forward as we had great difficulty in picking a winner. Any of the first five could win it.
800 M 1. Holly Hunter East Fairmont 2. Ariel Davis Elkins 3. Giti Farudi University 4. Sarah Ogle St. Albans 5. Michelle VanHorn Jefferson 6. Susan Davis Hampshire What a great pack of runners. The winner could be someone not on the list. There are at least two potential winners that didn't get picked in our top six. Hunter gets the nod after receiving more rest time between the 1600 and 800 at the state meet than she had at the regional.
1600 M 1. Holly Hunter East Fairmont 2. Susan Davis Hampshire 3. Sarah Ogle St. Albans 4. Michelle VanHorn Jefferson 5. Jennifer Davis Hampshire 6. Katharine Gorrell George Washington Will Davis and Hunter push each other under the 5:00 barrier? Hunter ran a 5:02.72 in her region without anyone pushing her. We could witness WV Track History!
3200 M 1. Holly Hunter East Fairmont 2. Susan Davis Hampshire 3. Jennifer Davis Hampshire 4. Sarah Corley Fairmont Senior 5. Sarah Ogle St. Albans 6. Stephanie Eastman Roane The Davis twins did the unthinkable in Cross Country season in knocking off Hunter. That makes them legitimate threats in this race, but they haven't yet shown the track speed that Hunter has. Eastman is a bit of a wild-card having only run the 3200 a couple times in her career.
100 HH 1. Latoya Parks Martinsburg 2. Erica Reese Capital 3. Rebecca Ripoli Fairmont Senior 4. Alana Raines Parkersburg South 5. Jennifer Boyer Jefferson 6. Crystal Brown Parkersburg South Parks shouldn't really be contested in this one, and the first 3 look pretty solid.
300 LH 1. Rebecca Ripoli Fairmont Senior 2. Melissa Hamrick Roane 3. Kimba Hissom Huntington 4. Erica Reese Capital 5. Briana Jones Parkersburg 6. Jade Barney Musselman Intriguing match-up in this one. Hamrick and Hissom have split two recent battles. Jones has a time to match either of them. Reese and Ripoli are more than capable. The winner could go under 47 seconds.
4x100 M 1. Jefferson 2. Martinsburg 3. Capital 4. Huntington 5. Hurricane 6. Wheeling Park Jefferson is the odds-on favorite, but bad hand-offs will doom a team in the 4 X 100.
4x200 M 1. Capital 2. Martinsburg 3. Hurricane 4. Fairmont Senior 5. Huntington 6. Jefferson Capital could bury the competition in this one. They own by far the best time in the field.
4x400 M 1. Elkins 2. Hurricane 3. Fairmont Senior 4. Jefferson 5. Parkersburg South 6. East Fairmont Elkins has two girls that can run 60 for their legs. Hurricane counters with two of their own that can run in the 59 to 61 range. Who has the best 3rd and 4th runners? We're betting it's Elkins. Fairmont Senior is a threat is their 300 Meter Hurdlers run.
4x800 M 1. Elkins 2. Jefferson 3. Fairmont Senior 4. Buckhannon-Upshur 5. Hedgesville 6. Wheeling Park We could see 3 teams under 10:00 minutes, and don't be surprised if somebody goes under 9:50.
Shuttle 1. Parkersburg 2. Parkersburg South 3. Martinsburg 4. Fairmont Senior 5. John Marshall 6. Woodrow Wilson Parkersburg and Parkersburg South have been tight all year. Aggressiveness on the exchanges could be the difference in the race.
L Jump 1. Latoya Parks Martinsburg 2. Katie Taylor St. Albans 3. Alisha Hopkins Oak Hill 4. Lindsey Stewart Hampshire 5. Roxanne Ward Parkersburg 6. Andi Rose Wheeling Park Parks owns the only AAA 17' jump this season. Hopkins and Taylor had the only 16' jumps at Regional Meets.
H Jump 1. Dori Glance Fairmont Senior 2. Erin Compton Oak Hill 3. Roxanne Ward Parkersburg 4. Sarah McVay Cabell Midland 5. Nancy Regalbuto Hedgesville 6. Amy McVay Cabell Midland Glance is far and away the favorite. Compton is queen of the field events.
Discus 1. Erin Compton Oak Hill 2. Patrice King Wheeling Park 3. Mary Wilson Roane 4. Allison Burner Parkersburg 5. Brandy Helmick Jefferson 6. Ilora Cipolat Woodrow Wilson It will take a phenomenal effort for anyone to knock off Compton in the Discus. She owns a throw 30 feet further than anyone else in the field.
Shot 1. Brandy Helmick Jefferson 2. Roxanne Ward Parkersburg 3. Allison Burner Parkersburg 4. Lisa Cooper Nitro 5. Erin Compton Oak Hill 6. Patrice King Wheeling Park Helmick has the only 40' toss in the field. Ward and Burner have multiple throws of 38' or better.
P Vault 1. Angela Wallace Parkersburg 2. Erin Compton Oak Hill 3. Darcy Thompson Fairmont Senior 4. Mary Beth Held Parkersburg 5. Lindsey Litton Parkersburg 6. Kristen Wellman John Marshall Wallace has the only 9' jump in the competition. Held and Litton had vaults of 9' last year, so they must be regarded as threats. Compton vaulted 8'6 at her region with no competition.
