2023 PA MileSplit Girls Indoor Track All-State Selections

End of Season Awards

The Boys List

With the Indoor Track and Field season officially concluded, the PA MileSplit team would like to extend our gratitude to the venues, timers, meet officials, directors, coaches and student-athletes who made the 2023 Indoor Track and Field Season possible.

With the season in the rearview, we sat down to determine the PA MileSplit All-State Team Selections and Award Winners. We carefully examined each student-athletes entire body of work. We tirelessly looked at rankings, championship finishes, all-time marks, consistency, etc., as we carefully combed over this season's best student-athletes. We feel confident in our selections, though we acknowledge that numerous talented individuals narrowly missed out on this year's rendition. 

But nevertheless - we had to thin the herd to 31 Standout Individuals. Without further ado - here are our 2023 Girls Indoor Track and Field All-State Teams and Award Winners.
