Tessa Buswell of Poway (SD) was a CIF-State champion and also ran the second fastest 3-mile time in the class with her performance at Woodbridge.

Highland (CS) senior Mia Torrecillas is among the top returning CA girls on 5000-meter cross country courses.

Sadie Engelhardt, left, and Payton Godsey were the only two girls in the U.S. last season to run sub-16 for 3-miles when they went 1-2 at Woodbridge.

Event-by-event listing of the top 50 returning girls track and field athletes in the Southern Section based on marks achieved during the 2022 outdoor season.

Sadie Engelhardt, coming off a historic freshman track and field, ranks No. 1 in the 1600m, No. 4 for 3200m, and No. 10 for 800m all-time in CA history.

Woodward Park's 5K course is home to the Clovis and Rough Rider Invitationals, the CIF-State Championships, and numerous other events in the Central Section.
