From the Backstretch by Reuben Frank

Earlier today, we posted the all-time indoor Meet of Champions boys top-20 performance list, and now it’s time for the girls list.

The girls meet started in 1979, a decade after the boys meet. The first 27 girls M-of-Cs were held at Princeton’s Jadwin Gym. The meet moved to the Bubble in Toms River in 2007 and has remained there with the exception of one fabulous year at a real facility – Ocean Breeze in Staten Island in 2020.

These lists go 20 deep (plus ties) for most events, not quite so deep for some of the newer events (200, 4-by-8, pole vault, long jump, triple jump). We’ve included the top 20 performers, with all other marks by those athletes that come in under the cut-off.

Good luck to everybody competing Friday and Saturday! As always, if you see any errors or omissions let me know in the comments section!
