She was won 3 state titles in Pennsylvania, became a Foot Locker finalist this past fall, and qualified multiple times for the Millrose Games, but a Penn Relays title would be a fitting close to an accomplished high school career by Pennridge (PA) senior Marissa Sheva. Sheva will be one of the top contenders in Thursday's high school girls mile race at the Penn Relays as one of the top returnees from the 2014 meet when she placed 5th. (Photo by Don Rich)
