The upgrading from last year to this isn't as dramatic with 2A Girls as we saw yesterday with 3A Boys, but we do appear to be on a steadily steepening slope here as well. With a week of qualifying to go, 10 of 19 events are already ahead of last year's ultimate qualifying standard. And you can bet a lot of the remaining nine will fall this week as athletes give it their last and best efforts before State.
With one week to go, here is where we stand versus the last two years:
