Madison Schmidt and Nyalaam Jok (High Jump)
In a match-up that is too close to call, we want to recognize both Madison Schmidt and Nyalaam Jok as the best high jumpers in state history. They both own 5 of the top 20 high jump marks of all-time, therefore amassing half of the all-time list there. Schmidt is a 2x state champion high jumper, whereas Jok only won one (2020 season canceled).
They are both tied for the all-time state record of 6 feet even, and both of them have at least three jumps of 5' 10" of higher in high school, whereas only two other girls have one.
