Girls to Watch: National Field Events Preview

Margaux Jones (Redlands, CA) nabbed the final All-American spot at NBN Indoors with an 18-11.75 finish. She owns the seventh-best returning indoor mark, but the second-best outdoor mark (20-5.5). Jones is one of the few Californians to compete indoors. Fellow Golden Stater Country Corrin (Harvard Westlake) was the NBN Outdoors runner-up and will return to the outdoor season on top by far with her 20-8.25 best. That leap beats out Jones by nearly three inches, but Corrin’s all-time best came in 2013 with a 21-foot leap to win the USATF World Youth Trials. The big-time performer went on to place fifth at the IAAF World Youth Championship that summer. She could be heir to Orji’s throne if she decides to compete indoors this season.
