Adelosa Afonja, Dwight-Englewood
The junior jumper went 36-1 1/2 in the triple jump, longest in North Jersey this season at the Aviator Relays at Hasbrouck Heights, just nine inches from the school record.
Mikaella Francisco, Clifton
The senior jumper dominated both the long and triple jumps at the Dr. Boverini Passaic County Relays at Wayne Hills, breaking a 29-year-old school record in the long jump at 17-7, more than a foot further than any other girl and triple jumping 35-10, tying another school mark.
Tori Hackett, Passaic Tech
The sophomore added a new event to her repertoire, leading all 400 meter hurdlers at the Passaic County Relays with a time of 65.26, already among the top 30 times in Passaic County history. She also had the longest javelin throw of the day at 127-9 and ran legs on the Bulldogs winning shuttle hurdles and 4-x-400 teams.
Julia Korpics, Hawthorne
The senior shattered the 12-year-old school record in the shot by tossing a massive personal best and Passaic County leading 38-2 a week after crushing her own school record in the discus. The old shot put record was 36-4 by Sherika Dyer in 2014
Catherine Larsen, Ramsey
The senior added the 400 hurdles to her arsenal this season and ran a sensational 63.0 hand timed race at the Aviator Relays, cracking the top 35 all-time in Bergen history and coming within a second of the school record set nearly 20 years ago. One of the mainstays of Ramsey's back-to-back state Group 1 state winter relays titles, is now even more of an individual threat.
