Festival of Miles Girls Mile Field

Stephanie Jenks
Linn-Mar HS, Iowa
4:44 Full Mile
Jenks, just a freshman, had a huge race at the adidas Dream Mile in New York City over the weekend. Her 4:44 there was good for sixth place and makes her the favorite for this year's FOM title.
Hannah Long
Eureka HS, Missouri
4:49
Long has run 4:49 twice this year, at the KU Relays and at the Missouri State Meet. She was 10th at the Foot Locker National Championships in the fall and has also run 2:11 for 800 and 10:27 for 3200.
Taylor Werner
Ste Genevieve HS, Missouri
4:52
The fabulous frosh Werner proved once again why she is one of the best in the nation over the weekend with a State Meet performance for the ages. She won the 800, the 1600 and the 3200 and ran a leg on Set Gen's victorious 4x800 relay.
Regan Ward
Beggs HS, Oklahoma
4:54
Like Werner, Ward won all three individual distance races at her Oklahoma State Meet. Her 4:54 PR makes her a serious threat on Thursday night.
Lucy May
St. Joseph's Academy, Missouri
4:56
May served as the pacemaker at last year's FOM. Now she comes in to the 2013 event as one of the favorites. She finished second at the Missouri State Meet over 1600 meters.
Jill Whitman
Cor Jesu Academy, Missouri
4:56
Whitman comes into this year's race on a serious roll after a PR two weeks ago at Sectionals and a State Championship at 3200 meters. She was fifth at last year's FOM.
Angie Sumner
Eureka HS, Missouri
4:59
The seventh sub 5 athlete in this year's field, Sumner has enjoyed a supremely consistent track season where she went under 5:00 and under 11:00 for 3200. She was second to Whitman at the latter distance at the State Meet.
Anna Holdiman
Waverly Shellrock HS, Iowa
4:40 1500
Of the three 2012 Foot Locker Finalists in the field, Holdiman was the highest finisher (seventh). On the track she was the Iowa Class 3 State Champ at 1500 meters.
Courtney Coppinger
St Teresa's Academy, Missouri
5:02
Coppinger finished a strong third at the Missouri State Meet at 1600 meters where she PR'd in 5:02. She was also a member of St. Teresa's runner-up 4x800 squad.
Saga Barzowski
Arcadia Valley HS, Missouri
5:04
Barzowski was third behind just Long and Werner at last year's FOM and appears to be rounding into her best form once again. She ran a strong 5:05 to finish second in Class 3 at the Missouri State Meet.
Courtney Rogers
Lutheran-St. Peters, Missouri
5:05
Our 11th girl at 5:05 or better, Rogers was the Class 2 Champ at 1600 meters where she won by five seconds. She'll have plenty of competition on Thursday so a sub 5 could be in the cards.
Samantha Simms
Sacred Heart Academy, Kentucky
5:07 full Mile
Simms ran 5:07 to finish ninth in a very deep field at this year's Kentucky Dream Mile. She'll look to best that in what promises to be an even deeper field this Thursday.
Abby Hoover
Sapulpa HS, Oklahoma
5:06
Yet another athlete coming into FOM on a roll, Hoover was the 1600 meter State Champ in Oklahoma.
Nicole Lee
Clinton HS, Missouri
5:08
Lee was second to Werner in 10:52 over 3200 meters at the Missouri State Meet in Class 3. She also finished third in the 1600 in 5:08.
Jamie Kempfer
Festus HS, Missouri
5:09
Kempfer ran her 5:09 in a very tough Sectional to get third and advance to State. She was seventh there in 5:12 and will no doubt be looking to get back under 5:10 at FOM.
Katie Tuck
Smithville HS, Missouri
5:09
Tuck punched her ticket to FOM at the State Meet where she was fourth in the 1600 meter in Class 3. She was sixth here a year ago.
Kyandra Chandler
Nettleton HS, Arkansas
4:49 1500
Chandler, 12th at last year's FOM, won the 800, 1600, and 3200 at the Arkansas Class 5A meet.
