It is in the 12-7 range. Set by Allison Stokke 2 years ago.

It's a diminishing return. Most high schoolers have no business running beyond 12-14 steps and actually will perform worse if they do.

No im pretty sure its like 14'6+ in a previous post, someone said his stats. Im not even sure if he has the frosh record. something like 14'6, 16'1, 17'4, 18'3. I know thats not right, but close. But somewhere around 15ish

ryan shuler jumped 16 as a freshman, Tommy Skipper did too didnt he? So the Freshman record has to be 16 or higher. but reading this thread I was confused so Im not really sure if I make any since.

Bryan your legs aren't long enough to run from 24 steps!
