The Club, recognizing an All-Metro team for the 55th year, selected the team based on criteria including season bests, their performances at major meets, and their finishes this past weekend in the state meets. Over the next week, the community can help determine the Most Outstanding male and female athletes in each discipline by voting at this link from May 15 to May 20.

"Every spring, we are proud to honor the accomplishments and achievements of the Atlanta area's remarkable track and field athletes," said Rich Kenah, Atlanta Track Club's Executive Director.

The Club will honor each of the athletes selected to the team and announce the Most Outstanding Athletes at the Powerade All-Metro Track & Field Banquet on June 5.
