I hope everyone has recovered both mentally and physically from the draining heat of the State Finals weekend. I know I’ve had three of the best nights of sleep that I’ve had in months. Continuing on the best crews theme that I’ve done this year, I’ve compiled one final ranking. Same formula as always, recognizing the teams with the best depth in their respective areas.
I want to do individual rankings for each event area. High Jump and Long Jump have competitors that do both, but it isn’t the norm as it might be for throws or hurdles. I won’t put a graphic on social media, but at the end of the post, I’ll have rankings for those that competed in both events.
For an explanation of what I’ve been doing here, click the link below:
