Meet:  		AAA Girls State Meet Predictions
Location:	Elkins, WV
Date:		To be held October 28, 2000

Predicted AAA Girls Team Results

Buckle your seatbelts.  This is going to be a wild ride.  The battle for
the top spot should exceed even last year's in excitement because this time,
there are three teams involved.  Morgantown and Parkersburg have been at the
top of the rankings all season long.  East Fairmont battled through some 
injuries and have found themselves in the hunt to defend their title.  This 
three way battle should keep the fans on their feet and the runners giving 
it their all. A close battle for fourth should ensue as well, as Elkins and 
Preston appear to be closely matched.  Those two teams could find themselves 
in that top three mix as well if certain people perform above expectations.

1.  East Fairmont	EF	 76
2.  Morgantown		Mor	 80
3.  Parkersburg		PHS	 81
4.  Elkins		Elk	 94
5.  Preston		Pre	 97
6.  Cabell Midland	CM	140
7.  Hampshire		Ham	142
8.  Huntington		Hun	195
9.  Woodrow Wilson	WW	253

Predicted AAA Girls Top 25

Rachel Carden pulled off a major upset at the Forest Festival, topping both
Susan and Jennifer Davis.  The Davis' learned a valuable lesson about foot
apparel and the Elkins course that day and should be prepared to resume the
top spots.  Jennifer Davis won the state meet two years ago.  Now Susan
will get to join her in the record books.  Carden should walk away with the
number three position, but will have to hold off a challenge from the Elkins 
duo of Zaia Wharton and Ashley Varian to do it.  Wharton and Varian displayed
an excellent teamwork attack at the regional meet in obliterating the field.
