In the boys 60, one of the best jumpers in the country is challenging one of the best sprinters at his own game. US #3 long/triple jumper Noah Igbinoghene is entered against US #3 60 sprinter Nathanaiel Huggins. Both are Alabamans; Huggins's season best is 6.84, while Igbinoghene is fifteen hundredths back at 6.99 seconds.
Jayla Kirkland of Woodlawn, Alabama headlines the girls race. Her season best of 7.55--set on this track two weeks ago--makes her the sixth fastest high school performer of the season. But the World Youth finalist and many-time All-American may have much more in the tank.
