She dominated on the track last week and followed in the polls, winning -- by wide margin -- the latest National Girls Performer of the Week presented by Firefly honor.
Her name is Mia Brahe-Pedersen.
In Week 2, the Lake Oswego High School senior cruised in NPOTW voting, sweeping up 60-percent of the tallies after she clocked U.S. No. 1 times of 7.22 seconds in the 60m and 22.92 in the 200m.
Achieving all-time level performances -- U.S. No. 7 and a top five performance, respectively -- Pedersen also moved up to No. 1 on MileSplit's national subjective rankings.
Next up is Week 3. Below are five new nominees from last week's action on the track.
Voting will end on Friday at 12:00 p.m.
