One superstar female athlete is winding down her historic scholastic career while another is not even halfway through and she's breaking records. Shatori Walker-Kimbrough of Hopewell and Breanna Schwartz of Shaler headlined a memorable day at Baldwin High School on the girls side of the 2013 WPIAL AAA and AA Individual Track and Field Championships.

Walker-Kimbrough continued to add to her resume as one of the most decorated golden girls in WPIAL history as she added to volleyball and basketball gold by winning the Long Jump and the Triple Jump.

Meanwhile, the sophomore Schwartz not only won gold in the 800 and the 1600 meter race, she set new WPIAL records in both. Those two gold medals go along with the one she captured this past fall in the Girls AAA Cross-Country race.

Here are the results from the 2013 WPIAL Class AAA and Class AA Girls Individual track and Field Championships held on Thursday at Baldwin High School. 

In Class AAA, the top four finishers in each event qualify for the PIAA championships May 24-25 at Shippensburg University. Those who finish in fifth through eighth place must meet qualifying standards, which are in parentheses next to each event.
