Coaches we feel like we have a very unique meet with 1A schools up to 4A schools and want to continue to do this and try and put the very best competition on the track in and early meet. We try not to turn any schools away and in doing so we may have to limit the number of entries in some events since we are running during the week. I will let you know which events this will be in the upcoming days some years it worked out we did not have to have a cutoff.

Coaches.when you put your entries in you get 2 in all individual events1 relay. The Open 1600 will be ran at 3:05 pm. Enter your two 1600 people and that is all you need to enter everyone else we will heat it up on Tuesday the open 1600 will not be FAT timed. Coaches will be responsible for their own times in the open 1600. The top 32 times on the performance list will be entered in the 1600 will run at the regular slated meet time. OPEN 1600 will go off at 3:05. We are only running the top 32 people in the 1600 and top 16 in the 3200. Only the top 20 pole vaulters and high jumpers will be entered in the meet. Please use legit times and marks from this year or last. The coaches scratch meeting is at 3:00 you will only scratch running events at this meeting. All field events will scratch at the event. Again we will try to save time where can and not be to restricting we will not run and extra heat for one or 2 people in the longer races. This is a very competitive Varsity Track meet please do not just throw kids in an event it will lengthen the event and force us to have cutoff times.

******Example if there are 17 entered in the 300 hurdles we will run 2 heats runner 17 will not be entered. ******
