The Class 4 girls race is the hardest to predict this year. Even with what seems like a clear front-runner, we found out last year that really anyone can take home the prize out of a great number of teams. It's all about who shows up with their A-game in November. Here is a detailed list of the subjective power rankings for the 2017 Class 4 Girls Teams. Rankings are determined based on results from the 2016 cross country and individual/team results from the 2017 track and field seasons, with some special emphasis given to results the MSHSAA State Cross Country Championships and MSHSAA State Track and Field Championships. Subscribers can see the Team Scores based on 2016 returners' times for Class 4 here.
*Special Note: Please understand that these rankings are meant only to profile some of the top athletes in each class and is meant by no means as a way of excluding certain athletes for any reason. Civil discussions on subjective rankings are encouraged and embraced. Comment with anyone you think we left out and please send any private questions, comments or concerns to kdeeken@milesplit.com.
