40 yard dash times

[default]

My daughter is in a class at school taught by the football coach. He has them doing 40 yard sprints and timing them.

My question is what would be considered a good time for a high school girl in the forty. I know good times for NFL players but not high school softball players.

Any thoughts.

Why would you accept anything less than an NFL type time for your DD?

How old is she and what did she run time wise. I would consider anything under 5.2 sec. to be FAST for a highschool girl.

She is a freshman at 5foot tall and ran 2 times at 5.4 and 5.5.

I don't expect NFL times until at least her junior year. LOL

:lmao: awesome!


I would bet a fast High school girl would be running around 5.4-5.6., really fast track kids would still be accerlerating, so they might be a little lower. But for an untrained sprinter I bet would be in the mid 5's. Of course I really have no idea and could be completely wrong, which is not entirely uncommon lol.

I would be very happy with those kind of times for a freshman. I stand by the under 5.2 sec. = FAST for a high school girl. Sounds as though she is well on her way.

Uber: You are right really fast track kids would still be accelerating. Anything under 12.1 sec. in 100 Meters is Very fast for a girl in High School.

I have a girl on my team who is 16, just ran 5.02 at school. She is the fastest girl I have ever seen and big. 5'8" 150lb, just verballed to Butler University. Benches 140, squats 180. Needless to say, she has not been thrown out stealing in the three years I have had her. Her Home to 1st is 2.59 verified at a camp, as well as 10.24 home to home.

A year or so ago I read on Nebraska's web site that one of their slappers broke the school record (for softball) for the 40. Her time was 5.2. I've seen her play and she could fly.
