For the Division I girls, it is pretty much what you would suspect if you watched the state meet live. There was mainly a battle between two teams in this discipline and both we exceptionally talented and put up plenty of impressive marks prior to the state meet.
Huntington - 16pts
Huntington only scored points from one person, but this talented individual was able to score enough points to place 9th as a team. Can you believe that? This person is Demetria Harris and she competed in her two main events, the 60m and 60m hurdles. She took second in both of these events after facing off against other nationally ranked talents.
Ruston - 32pts
The Lady Bearcats' major point grab was with Bryanna Craig. She competed in the 60m hurdles and 4x400m, and that's just what she did on the sprint side of competition. She secured 3rd in the hurdles and later helped win the 4x400m relay.
Alongside Craig was Jada Williams, who competed in the 400m, 4x200m, and 4x400m. She was, hands down, one of the best long sprinters this season and she proved that this past weekend. She took 2nd in the 400m and helped both relay teams land on the podium, as well as shatter the D1 meet record in the 4x400m.
Scotlandville - 48pts
Scotlandville is easily the undisputed best girls sprint program from this past season. They scored points in every sprint event and were heavily favored in each heat. Leading the way for the team was Makeriah Harris. She won both the 60m hurdles and the 400m, as well as competing on the relay teams.
Also making a huge difference on the individual races were Sade Gray and Fatima Banks. They both went 3rd and 4th, respectively, in the 60m dash and also appeared later for the 4x200m and 4x400m relays.
Scotlandville scored more points in the sprints than another team in the state, regardless of division or gender. They also shocked everyone with their head-to-head battle with Ruston in the 4x400m and their shocking performance in the 4x200m relay when they destroyed the previous facility record.
