NJSIAA Indoor Meet of Champions Preview

Girls 200 Meter Dash Showcase

Event Preview

Sparks will be flying in this one!!

There is so much firepower in the one-lapper that the meet record of 24.34 set in 2020 by Mariah Fede of Paramus Catholic is probably the record most likely to fall, and we could see the second sub 24.00 in state indoor history.

Wendy Vereen of Trenton (23.84 in 1984) is the only girl to go under 24.00 in NJ history, but with the amount of talent that will be on display, there's a chance someone could join her in the sub 24.00 club.

Defending champion Sianni Wynn of Pennsauken, who ran 24.48 to win last year, has run well under the meet record this season with the 24.12 she clocked at Ocean Breeze last month. And Naylah Jones of Timber Creek has also run faster than Fede's record with a 24.15. Add Ryan Jennings of Timber Creek (24.47), Morgan Redmond of Mt. Olive and Taylor Aska of Union Catholic and several other strong sprinters into the mix, and this race is going to be lit.
