A trio of hurdlers have been 4-time selections here, with Char Foster (’94, ’95, ’96, ’97) & Sydney McLaughlin (’14, ’15, ’16, ’17) becoming the only ones with more than 2 No. 1s, each being No. 1 each time. Foster’s streak actually started with her 8th-grade year, but she missed as a senior… Nicole Leach (’02, ’03, ’04, ’05) is the only other 4-time selection, but an amazing 9 more have been 3-timers…
Besides Foster and McLaughlin’s triples, there have been 5 more to rank No. 1 at least twice: Gayle Kellon (’82 & ’83), Leslie Maxie (’84 & ’85), Lashinda Demus (’99 & ’01), Ebony Collins (’05 & ’06), Dalilah Muhammad (’07 & ’08) & Akala Garrett (’21 & ’22).
