** All races are run oldest --> youngest and girls --> boys. So, in the 200 it will go girls 15-18 then 13-14, then 11-12, then 9-10, then 8-under, and then boys repeating that order. This is the case for every event.
****Some age groups will be combined in the distance races for the competition itself but these will still be scored and given awards separately.
ENTRY FEES
Fees are $15 per individual ENTRY and $40 per relay ENTRY. There are no limits in entries, we will be verifying all times to ensure seeding is properly done. We would prefer to have no "NT" seeds so that we can seed this entire meet and give legitimate estimated time schedules.
A reminder to coaches: This is an ENTRY fee and not a competition fee.
