13.18 (+1.7).
That was the winning 100mH time that Rylee Hampton clocked at the Texas Relays.
What's impressive about the 13.18 for Hampton was this was a major personal best for her, but it was also tied for US No. 13 all-time in this event.
Throughout the week, Hampton earned 49-percent of the votes to be named this week's National Girls Performer Of The Week.
From now until the end of the outdoor track season, winners will be awarded National Athlete Of The Week backpacks courtesy of TrackBarn. If selected as National Girls Performer Of The Week, please send mailing addresses to olivia.ekpone@flosports.tv to receive your bag.
