The Top Athletes To Watch At Flo Golden South


Classic Girls 800

Athletes: Jatana Folston

Breakdown: The junior at Cocoa (FL) won her first Class 2A championship two weeks ago in the 400m, where she ran a career best of 53.42 seconds. At Flo Golden South, however, Folston -- whose father, James, played in the NFL for six years -- will look to throw down a wicked fast time in the half mile. Her career best came as a freshman, when she ran 2:11.81 at the Regional Championships, though she's made steady improvements as a junior, posting a season best of 2:12.11. The field isn't as strong here, and Folston will have to do all the work, but don't be surprised if she chips a second or two off that time.
