Athletic Excellence

The state’s only girl to qualify for a national championship meet, the 5-foot-2 junior took sixth at the Nike Cross Nationals Southeast Regional championships this past season, crossing the line in a personal-best time of 17:46.70. Miniutti also swept the Georgia High School Meet of Champions, clocking an 18:03.01 to lead the Titans to 7th place as a team, and the GHSA Class 4A state championship race in 18:51.49, spurring Blessed Trinity to a runner-up finish. She capped her campaign with a top-75 effort at the national NXN Final (75th in 19:00.80). Also the 2019 GHSA Class 4A outdoor track 3200-meter state champion, Miniutti was the 2019 Atlanta Track Club All-Metro Girls Runner of the Year. She was also named MileSplit.com’s National Girls Cross Country Performer of the Week after winning September’s Wingfoot Classic (17:54.00), becoming the first girl in school history to break 18 minutes while beating some of the most talented runners in the Southeast.
