Region III's Top Returnees for 2013 Outdoor Season

A list of the top returning individuals in each event among Region III schools from last year's outdoor season and links to full returnees rankings lists in each event. Liberty's Craig Danner is quite an athlete with versatility that he will make it a tougher time for him deciding on which event to focus on this spring. Danner was more of a 500 meter dash specialist this past winter, but moved up to the 1000 for the AA State Indoor Meet, which proved to be a wise move as Danner won his first state title in 2:34.34 performance. Danner could find himself in the 800 meter run, 300 meter hurdles, and 400 meter dash as well as high jump (6'4" clearance for third place in the state indoor meet) in meets this upcoming outdoor season.
