On the individual side, we are in for a classic as at least 7 girls have a chance to win it. Seeded first off Season Best, however, is Larue County's Isabella Day. her 18:31 came at the Mid-Kentucky Athletic Conference Championships where she defeated Thomas Nelson's Baili Hoten. Now, Hoten won Region 2 Class 2A last weekend defeating Day and running a personal best 18:55. She will no doubt threaten Day at the State meet. Then, Lexington Catholic has 3 girls seed in the top 7 with the aforementioned Caroline Beiting, Anna Dawahare, and Cate Conklin. All 3 have run under 19:10 and should be able to help each throughout the race. Rounding out the contenders is Bourbon County's Bethany Simpson and Rowan County's Autumn Egleston.
