Congratulations 2019 girls you produced more outstanding marks than any other year.
The 2019 season averaged 3.6 top notch marks per event bettering the previous best by the 2015 group.
The 1992 season, 28 years ago, is the only group from the last millennium to make it into the top 10 best years.
One thing I noticed while compiling this is the difference between the boys and girls seasons.
For the boys it is fairly rare for a frosh/soph to produce a mark that makes these lists. Therefore every year or two it is a totally different group of boys that make up the marks for that season.
For the girls it is fairly common for a girl who can produce such a mark to typically do it all three or four of her years, so the difference between one season and the years before or after are not usually very different.
Basically each decade in the girls has been far better than the previous decade.
Decade Average, low-high 2010-2019 45.7, 31-58 2000-2009 41.8, 28-51 1990-1999 31.4, 22-48 1980-1989 26.0, 16-40 1976-1979 14.6, 7.4-22.7
The years with marks with decimal places are from years before all 16 events were contested. In those years and I averaged the marks they had by events offered to even things out.
* Qualifying marks are roughly what it takes to make the All-Time Top 50, actual marks listed near the bottom of the page.
