I'm not aware of any notable college or pro female 5k times at VCP, but the female HS time I often see cited is Cathy Schiro's 16:46 from 1984.
gives relevant info. (Amusing that John Trautman was the male champion that day.)
Fwiw, VCP times are tough to compare over time. Different organizers run the course in different ways + the trails were resurfaced at some point (c.1990?), so if the point of this query is to try to benchmark Mary Cain's 17:11, I think you're on a bit of a fool's errand.
Oops - Trautmann
Cathy Schiro nee Cathy OBrien the one whose 10 mile American record I thought Huddle had broken yesterday!
Milesplit has a fairly comprehensive all-time list for the HS 4K / 2.5mi course:
Girls:
Boys:
And here's an HS girls list for the 5K "as of 2009":
HS record is Cathy Schiro - 16:46 set in 1984.
That same year she finished 9th in the Olympic Trials marathon. Her time from that race is still the high school record.
RIP: D3 All-American Frank Csorba - who ran 13:56 in March - dead
