Shelby County track and field

Led by the Whitehaven girls and Central boys — both of whom won their second straight Class AAA state titles — Memphis athletes were the standouts at last year's Spring Fling. Look for Yusef Sharif's Tigers and Rashad Haynes' Warriors to be right in the mix again, along with some standout returning individuals such as Central hurdler Courtney Thomas, Houston middle distance twins Collin and Keaton Jones, Harding decathlete Ty Kimberlin, Whitehaven sprinter Kirstin Jones, Cordova long jumper Lauryn James and the Briarcrest duo of Savanna Owens (sprints) and Meghan Underwood (800).
