Earlier this week we shed light on the top returners in each distance category broken up into: Sprints, Mid-Distance, and Distance. Today we're breaking into the field section, and using two jumps and two throws to measure the top returners in each category. For these particular rankings, we placed the Long Jump & Triple Jump into the jumps, the discus and shot put into the throws.
Mikayla Calabaza (Pojoaque Valley HS) is the top returner heading into the outdoor season. She is the only returner to have thrown for a combined total of over 160, and has a comfortable lead over the next best returner.
In the jumps, Los Alamos HS is displaying their strength over the rest of the state as they land three of the Top 10 returners. ABQ Academy isn't far behind though as they have a duo amongst the Top 10 returners for the jumps.
