CT Girls at Nationals
Lots of athletes headed down to either the New Balance Indoor Nationals at the Armory or Nike Indoor Nationals at Ocean Breeze on March 11-13 to compete in their events. Below are results for athletes who placed in the top 30 in a Championship event, in the top 20 for a Rising Stars\Emerging Elite event, or top 10 in a Freshman event. Most athletes competed at only one of the two Nationals, but a few such as Hillhouse's Olivia O'Connor who got to double dip in the weight events were at both meets.
