Cade McLaughlin:
The race for the AA Girls 2025 state title will be extremely close this weekend in Shippensburg. Lewisburg holds a 1st place seed by one point over Laurel. Expect the battle for the team title to be fought for by Lewisburg on the track in the relays and by Laurel in the field events.
Closely behind them are Warrior Run and Quaker Valley, who will be looking to put their name in the hat for a runner-up or even state title.
Overall the the top four teams are separate by 5.5 points with many of their stand out athletes competing in multiple events. It will be a true test of grit and determination combined with the unpredictability of a championship meet to see who will walk away with trophies and who will go home empty handed.
