The 2024 HighSchoolOT All-State Girls Indoor Track & Field Team

The third-annual HighSchoolOT girls indoor track & field all-state team features 20 athletes making an appearance on the team for the second or third time, led by Marvin Ridge senior Aria Wegh, who made her sixth appearance in three years.

The all-state team is based on either N.C. High School Athletic Association championship performance or the N.C. Independent Schools Athletic Association invitational, which functions as the unofficial championship.

Previous All-State Teams, Final Rankings

The top two times/marks are first team and the next-best two are second team.

In some events, there were ties across different classifications. In order to determine the teams, the tiebreaker was podium placement (a 1A champ got the spot over a second-place 4A athlete in the same event). If the athletes were still tied, they were each given a spot on the all-state team. There were no ties on this year's team.

Seven athletes made it in two different events this year: Rolesville's Joslyn Hamilton, Cummings' D'Anna Cotton, Cuthbertson's Charlotte Bell and Justine Preisano, Garner's Kori Randle, Myers Park's Mary Bonner Dalton, and Providence Day's Nia Poole.

The following athletes now have multiple appearances on the HSOT all-state indoor team in their careers, with Dalton leading the way in first-team appearances:

• 6-time (1): Marvin Ridge's Aria Wegh***
• 5-time (2): Dalton*****, Bell****
• 4-time (2): Cotton*, Hamilton**
