Precocious junior Kayla Davis leads the 400’s returnees at 51.17 and is also No. 2 in the 200 (23.31). (KIRBY LEE/IMAGE OF SPORT)
IN OUR 2020 VERSION of this annual compilation, we listed the top 20 prep returners, but this year’s version has been cut back to only 10. There just wasn’t enough activity last year to fill out lists to that depth which reflected true national-class status.
The mark listed with each athlete reflects her PR. In many cases that means it’s a performance achieved during the 2018–19 school year, not 19–20.
Classes: **** = 8th grade; *** = frosh; ** = soph; * = junior; all others are seniors.
