A Case Study on the Current Two Class System

The Question of Quality:

On the Track

Last year, the Dyersburg Girl's 4x200m Relay team placed 4th in the A/AA division at the State Meet. This year they posted the 22nd best time in the event state wide across all divisions at The Section 4 Final. Unfortunately, that was the last opportunity their girls had to compete this season. With a time of 1:46.04, they placed 7th at the competition and did not qualify for the state meet. Below are the results with supporting context.
