I was just notified of a major change that will really impact the 4A and 2A/1A girls. Sierra Manzer
(Kuna) 4A #1 and her sister Anysja who is also a very solid runner have transferred to Melba.
This really leaves 4A girls wide open and changes my pick for the favorite in 2A/1A girls. Sierra is now
the new #1 and favorite in 2A/1A having run 19:00 at State last year. Likewise, Melba will become one
of the best teams in 2A/1A. I still don't think anyone will come close to Soda Springs, but now Melba
could bring home the runner-up trophy.
Changes to Picks.
4A Girls
Individually-- Picks: 1. J. Nesbitt (Jerome), 2. A. Braun (TF) and 3. H. McInturff if she runs.
2A Girls-
Team-- My picks: 1. Soda, 2. Melba, 3. Firth, 4. McCall, 5. Nampa Christian.
Individually-- My Picks: 1. S. Manzer (Melba), 2. C. Simmons (Soda) 3. C. Hansen (Butte) 4. K.
Yamauchi (Soda) 5. K. Traughber (Butte).
