If any of your questions aren't answered by the below information, email Meet Management.
Timing: All events will be FAT timed by Flash Results, the preeminent timing company in the country that annually handles the NCAA and USATF championship meets. In addition to providing live online results throughout the meet, Flash Results also provides two large scoreboards at the start/finish line that will display start lists, a running time clock, wind readings and instant event results. Since we will also have cameras at the 100 meter start line, we will have the ability to run the 100 meter races backwards depending on the wind direction.
