On the girl's side, it is nearly impossible to pick a favorite for this outdoor season. With star-studded runners like Lilly Overby, Alex Lee, Addison Rainey, Blair Britt, and so many others, there really is no telling who will come out of this season as the dominant distance runner. To make it even deeper, Biloxi's Emerson Yelverton brings her deadly 400m speed into the 800m race and makes herself a top contender as well.
This outdoor season will have some of the best distance action that Mississippi has ever seen, so dive into the rest of these rankings and get ready for outdoor season!
