Scratches: Scratches can be made up until the declaration deadline of May 21st. After the deadline the athlete will be declared! The athlete cant be scratched from an individual race to be added to a relay after declaration. Each entered athlete should have a time, height, or distance from a current meet this indoor season. Athletes can only compete in 3 running events, if the athlete is running the 2 mile race, they may compete in one other race due the meet being a one day meet. There is no limitation on field events.
Entry Limits: Since there are no district meets for athletes to qualify as expressed in the Region 2C Handbook, each school can enter 2 athletes per event and 1 relay team. A team can enter a more athletes in an event if all of the athletes have made regional qualifying times. All marks must be verifiable on Milestat. If a meet isnt verifying times/distances, please email them to me. Entries will be made through Milestat. Registration Opens: May 1, 2018. Registration Closes: May 20, 2018.
