For the seventh straight World Youth Championships the United States won the scoring championships (places 1 through 8)—with 152 points. Germany was second with 104 followed by China at 100, Kenya at 87 and Ethiopia at 83. Before looking ahead to the 2015 World Youth championships it is very instructive to back at the 2013 meet. The U.S. totaled 17 medals to outdistance Kenya and China—both with eleven. The U.S. team had 20 girls entered in individual events, while the boys 21 entered. In what is surely one of the very best come-through performance at the world championship level 19 girls qualified for finals. The boys were not far behind with 13. Given the number of entrants these are number that not been reached in the World Championships and/or the World Junior championships. This tremendous success was made possible due to the efforts of a great staff of coaches, managers, athletic trainers and the USATF National office as well as the athletes who brought into to those efforts.
