The ultimate goals are to promote experience, competition, total team participation, and fun. This meet is VHSL sanctioned and the VHSL rule (84-3-1) concerning individual participation shall be in force.

**The 2018 Newport News Conn-Madden Relays is presenting an "Elite Mile." From the entries it receives for this event, meet organizers will pick the top-16 boys and top-16 girls. The athletes you enter for consideration, must have their entry-submitted time documented in the "MileSplit.com" database from a previous invitational (indoor or outdoor). This event will be included in team scores.**

Field Event Format. The pole vault is an individual event and the starting heights are based on the concept of quality vaulters; it is NOT supposed to be a developmental event.
