(indoor times)
Peyton is fun to watch. Good kid and works hard. Who do you have for good matchups in the sprints (100-400) in 1? Saw Erickson and Dinius battled it out at the indoor which was true to your earlier list. That could be a bit of a preview of things to come. As far as 1 field events, I didn't see anyone really running away with anything. I guess I didn't catch the pole vault so I may be mistaken there.
Not every team had everybody at State Indoor...Indoor season can be a crap-shoot as there are still many other things going on.
Region 1 Girls
Sprints (100-200)
100 & 200: Erickson is probably the favorite but you have a solid core after her that should qualify.
Mid-Distance (400)
400: Erickson is the favorite in the 400...at this moment I'm unsure anyone else can run a qualifying time.
Distance (800-1600-3200)
Look at previous comment above...also add Tess Scott & Samantha Wieland from BCN to 2nd tier.
Hurdles (100 & 300)
100H: Key names right now Cavett (Lisbon), Hajek (Sargent Cty) & Hiatt (Kindred)
300H: Erickson if she chooses to do them...might be only girl near or below qualifying time
Relays: Listing Thoughts on Top 3
4x1: Kindred, Central Cass, Lisbon
4x2: Kindred, Northern Cass, Oak Grove
4x4: Kindred, MV-Enderlin, (too early to pick a 3rd)
4x8: Oak Grove, Kindred, Oakes
Field Events
LJ: Bergstrom (OG) has gone 16-4 indoors...then next tier is Olson (Lisbon) & Aasen (NC)
TJ: Olson (Lisbon) is leader right now...Bergstrom (OG) is capable of SQ distance
HJ: Wedell (Ellendale) is only girl returning that competed at State...decent core of girls follow
PV: Dixon (OG) & Rose (BCN) are top heights so far...3rd spot is up for grabs.
Shot: Nelson (Sargent Cty) early favorite...Froelich (Lisbon) is closest contender in Region so far.
Disc: Too early to tell...however Ripplinger (Lisbon) is favorite
Jav: Too early to tell...Ripplinger (Lisbon) is the heavy favorite
I'll analyze SE Region (Region 1 area) again in 3 weeks when hopefully some outdoor meets will have occurred.
