Skinny: Things could get interesting in Gainesville with Stark as a collegiate hurdler. The Michigan native, who scored a time of 12.83 over 30-inch hurdles at the Youth Olympics in Argentina, is inching closer and closer toward the sub-13 mark in high school (at 33-inches) and has elite talent. She'll get to work with famed sprints coach Mike Holloway and hurdles coach Adrainn Mann and should be able to refine her ability even more. Brown, meanwhile, is one of the best sprinters to come out of Texas this year. She owns PRs of 11.50 in the 100m and 24.08 in the 200m and has a best of 20-0.5 in the long jump. Notable additions beyond those two preps are Jensen, a U20 qualifier for Denmark in the throws, and Hooper, a superb triple jumper.
