These standards are calculated based on the average of the ninth-place finisher over the last 10 editions of the meet.
Just because your athlete meets a standard, however, it does not guarantee entry into the meet.
If your athletes are a LONG way off the standard, then there is no need to enter them. These sorts of entries will be automatically rejected by the system.
Medals will be given to the top three in every event.
Plaques will be given to the "Most Outstanding" performer on the boys and girls side for both field and running events.
A special ceremony will be held after the field events conclude to recognize the field events performers and at the end of the meet to recognize the running events athletes.
We ask that athletes that are in consideration for the award stick around until the end for photo opportunities with the presenters. The Meet Director will notify a coach if one of your athletes is in consideration.
