All times are through meets held by May 2 and received by RunWV by May 4.
 
For the girls, Aria Selario is fourth in the 3200 meter run at 11:26.63, seventh in the 1600 meter run in 5:11.81 and eighth in the 800 meter run at 2:26.05.

The Tribe’s relays are highly ranked; the 4x100 (51.25 seconds) is third, the 4x200 (1:50.14) sixth and the shuttle hurdles (1:11.52) ninth.
 
Isla Tobrey is tied for the eighth-best pole vault at 8-00.

For the boys, Will George is in the hunt in both sprints, with his 10.90 tied for second in the 100 meter dash and his 22.49 fourth-best in the 200 meter dash.
 
The state meet, four classes for the first time this year, will be held at Laidley Field in Charleston on May 22-23, starting at noon on Friday and 9 a.m. on Saturday.
 
Gavin Williams is also on track to be in the finals, sitting eighth in both the 100 meter dash (11.07) and 200 meter dash (22.78).
 
Troy Zorick is top-10 in all three distance events, with times of 2:00.92 in the 800 meter run (10th), 4:29.78 in the 1600 meter run (eighth) and 10:06.78 in the 3200 meter run (10th).
