A quick glance at the rankings below makes one thing clear: Clinton's squad is stacked with talent. Based on the top returning times from last outdoor season, they boast the fastest athletes in the 100m, 200m, 400m, and 110m hurdles in the state. However, they won't have an easy path to dominance-several challengers are closing in fast. The indoor season has already hinted at how fiercely competitive these sprint events will be, especially in the MHSAA 7A classification. With so much depth and rising talent in the mix, the battle for the top spots is just getting started.
Take a look at the rankings below to see who's leading the charge.
