BACK IN FORCE. No. 1-rated 2024 All-Americas, that is. No fewer than 8 of them are still in high school: Dana Wilson (100), Lisa Raye (200), Skyler Franklin (400), Sadie Engelhardt (800/Mile), Madeline Cooper (100H), Hannah Grace (PV), Kimberly Beard (HT), Hayden Williams-Downing (JT). Engelhardt has indicated she will not run HS meets, yet with no pro contract signed (just an NIL deal), she still qualifies as a prep.
Classes: ** = frosh; * = soph; = junior; all others are seniors. + = time converted from metric race; w = illegally wind-aided; (A) = altitude over 1000m (in aided events only).
