Kylah Woods (Fort Bend Ridge Point)
Grade: Freshman
Events: Hurdles, 200m, 400m, 800m
Woods is a gem who was found early; so early that it wasn't even this year we learned about her. She has been an age group star for a couple of years on the summer club circuit.
Now, she is in high school and it's evident she is ready to compete with the older girls. She ran the 60 hurdles twice this indoor season with a 9.50 PR at the 2022 Carl Lewis Invitational. However, it's the sprints where she proved she will be a force beginning this year.
Woods had a busy weekend in Lubbock when she competed at the Texas Tech Under Armour High School Classic. She ran PRs and into the top 31 rankings in the 60m (7.83 - TX NO. 31), 200m (24.82 - TX No. 15), and the 400m (57.70 - TX No. 20).
