The Dish: Lester is one of the most versatile girls athletes in the country today. It wasn't a surprise when she finished second at New Balance Nationals Indoor in the pentathlon, scoring 3,976 points. A program that scoops Lester up could also use her in the heptathlon, or could choose to move her strictly to the 200m, 400m, or even the 800m. Lester's ability to move around and score in a number of events -- at a very high degree -- will ultimately help her chances.
