2025’s Best Vault Crews: Girls Final Rankings

Hard to believe, but it’s over. Another track season, done. Time to reflect on the best crews and best individuals.

The Best Crews have been a thing around here for the past few years. They take their cues from USTFCCCA’s event squads and the World Athletics scoring system, combining the two ideas in order to compare Michigan’s teams against events in their common areas.

The goal of this is to help recognize the athletes and coaches that create cultures, history, and traditions in their respective event areas. Think about it like this: Minnesota always has great hockey, basketball hoops are nailed to Indiana barns, Texas churns out football talent, every Iowa boy has cauliflower ear. Where in Michigan does hurdling reign supreme? Is there a town where kids learn to shot put before they can tie their shoes?

2023’s explanation goes through much of it, but here’s a brief summary:

  • an athlete qualifies by hitting a regional qualifying mark in an event
  • those times from the athletes are converted into points
  • at a maximum of three athletes (with an exception for teams that have more athletes under the state qualifying mark), team scores are tallied up
  • then team scores are added across all events of a certain area (hurdles, distance, etc.)

Here are the figures that show the points for each mark:

VAULTERS OF THE YEAR

No crazy math here. The Pole Vault combines many events into one – strength, speed, leaping ability, and agility. Then add a healthy dose of fearlessness and you’ve got a vaulter. The list below mimics what you’d see on athletic.net.
