We've selected the candidates from the 2023 Indoor Group State Championships and now it's up to the viewers to select their choice for the top performance!
There were too many to list in one poll so we broke down the boys and girls meets into categories: sprints & hurdles, distance, and field.
These will close Sunday night at 8pm ET and winning performances will be highlighted early next week. The various writeups and selections by Robert Kellert and Jim Lambert.
