(Linn-Mar High School - Marion, Iowa)
Class of 2016
After busy summer of racing in the World Junior Championships in the 3K at the end of July in Eugene and competing in the triathlon at the World Youth Olympic Games in China next week, Stephanie Jenks will eventually start to turn her attention to the cross country season. Jenks is coming off a banner sophomore year in which she lowered her PR's down to 2:09 in the 800, 4:28 in the 1500, 4:42 in the mile, 9:24 in the 3K, 10:06 in the 2 mile, and 16:37 5K. A 9th place finisher in the 2013 Foot Locker Nationals, Jenks will be looking to become a repeat All-American and could find herself peaked at the right time to challenge for the win at Balboa Park.
