Entry Limits: The Top-32 entries will be accepted in the 100m, 400m, and 1600m races. The Top-16 entries will be accepted in the HS 800m. In the case of ties that cause the number of entries to exceed these limits, meet management reserves the right to accept more or less than the maximum. If the meet schedule allows, we may expand the field in some high-demand events.
You can put in entries any time and we will update all seed times before finalizing the entries.
We will accept Mile times and converted 1600m times as seed times.
Accepted entries will be posted after the entry deadline. Entering your athlete does not guarantee them a spot in the meet - not all registered entries will make it into the field, so please check back after the entry deadline to confirm accepted entries.
Since there are entry limits, please wait until after the deadline when entries are accepted/rejected and finalized before making online payment. After accepted entries are confirmed, you can use online payment for entry fees.

Medical & Water We will have an Athletic Trainer on site for emergencies, basic first aid, water and ice. Please advise the host school of any special needs athletes may have. Please bring a med kit with your team in the event that your athletes require routine taping, etc. In addition to the water we will provide on the infield, we encourage each team to bring a water cooler for their team area.
