It's one final season for Girard College's Thelma Davies, who has already solidified her spot as the greatest high school sprinter PA has ever seen.
Davies will, of course, be the one to beat in AA. She'll be shooting for her fourth straight state title, something she should accomplish barring the unforeseen. She finished off her junior season in a big way, breaking her own 100m state record with an 11.42 at USATF Juniors. She broke her 60m state record indoors and will look for another time drop before heading to LSU in the late summer.
There are three other state medalists in AA back from last year. Alexandra Brizzi of Calvary Christian Academy took third at states last season. She went 12.33 in the semis at Ship. A pair of freshman medalists are back for their sophomore seasons: South Park's Maddie Raymond (fifth) and Riverside (7)'s Aubriante Cleckley (sixth). Raymond went 12.18 to win the WPIAL title last year.
As for the independent schools, the one to watch will be Germantown Acade...
