Entries will be done online through Milestat. Please enter all athletes that may run in

they don't actually run in the meet.
Following the closing of entries on Wednesday March 30, 2021, each coach will receive an
email of their entries on a performance list.
Coaches will need to confirm their entries are correct and declare which 7 runners will compete in the championship race and which 3 runners will be alternates. Coaches are asked to use the
VHSL championship entry form to declare their 10 runners. This form can be
found online at VHSL.org. It is under the resource section for Cross Country. Confirmation
and declaration of the 10 athletes needs to emailed to rbrogan@apps.fluco.org by Wednesday
morning at 9:00 am.
Bib numbers will be assigned to the 10 declared runners.
Any 7 of the 10 can run in the championship race. The other 3 can run in the
open race using their assigned bib number.
For the non-declared runners in the open races, please write their race
number from the performance list on the back of their right hand using a
sharpie marker. We will have sharpies available at the meet. Please write the
number on their hand before their warm-up so that it is easy to read. The
alternates may also run in the open race using their assigned bib or by writing
that bib number on their right hand.
At the end of each race, finishers are to proceed through the chute to have their
race numbers recorded in the order of finish. If an athlete is unable to
proceed through the chute, please have a coach walk through the chute in that
position with the race number. It is very important that athletes stay in order
through the chute to get the times to match up with each finisher.
Championship finishers will also receive an index card with their corresponding finishing
place. Coaches are asked to collect these index cards and write the name of the
athlete and school name on it. Please turn in all 7 cards in as soon as
possible at the finish line.
