This Week's Nominees:

Lauren Kosek, Wellsboro Area 04 (Pennsylvania): First place out of 218 finishers went to a 5K time of 18:08.10 at the 20th PIAA Foundation XC Invitational, where the margin at the front stretched to 39.5 seconds. The clocking ranks No. 7 of 3,677 athletes in MileSplit's database at Big Spring HS XC since 2002, and No. 4 among senior athletes in that same span on this course.

Maris Cobb, Towanda 04 (Pennsylvania): Covering 5K in 18:23.70 at the Owego-Dash in the Dark, she crossed first out of 154 finishers and pulled away by 32.2 seconds. That effort ranks No. 6 of 436 athletes in MileSplit's database at Owego HS since 2021, and it stands as the fastest sophomore mark on that course list.

Norah Sondej, Mars Area 07 (Pennsylvania): Ran 19:46.00 for 1st place among 68 finishers in the 5K at WPIAL Division I Section 3 Preview. The mark is No. 5 of 330 athletes overall in MileSplit's database at this course since 2020. It is also No. 2 of 143 freshman athletes in MileSplit's database at this course since 2020.

Sonya Taylor, Moon Area 07 (Pennsylvania): Six seconds made the difference at the Blue Devil Invitational, where a 5K clocking of 19:59.00 was enough for first place among 148 finishers. In MileSplit's database at Buhl Park 3.0 since 2003, that time ranks No. 143 of 3,406 athletes overall and No. 66 among seniors on this course.

Beatrice Kolesar, Cranberry 09 (Pennsylvania): A finish separated by a mere 0.1 seconds capped the 20th PIAA Foundation XC Invitational, where a 19:43.40 clocking over 5K placed first among 169 finishers. The time ranks No. 152 of 3,677 athletes in MileSplit's database at Big Spring HS XC since 2002, No. 59 among seniors in that span.
