The 5-foot-7 sophomore won three individual state championships at the Class 5A state meet this past season. Minor broke the tape in the 100-meter dash with a time of 11.53 seconds, the 200-meter dash in 23.57 and the 400-meter dash in 53.30, while also anchoring the 4x100 relay to a second-place finish. She captured both the 200 and the 400 at the Great Southwest Classic, and her time of 52.38 in the latter ranked as the nation's No. 3 performance among prep competitors in 2017 at the time of her selection.
Minor has maintained a 3.09 GPA in the classroom. She will begin her junior year of high school this fall.
A member of her church's youth ministry, Minor has volunteered locally on behalf of an animal shelter, retirement homes and the Denver Botanical Gardens. "She doesn't take her abilities for granted and she knows that her successes hinge on hard work and dedication," said Denver East coach Steve Kiper, "Not just on the track, but in the school hallways and life in general. She wants to be the best, and do her best."
