Meet Standards -Please Enter Athletes Who Can Meet These Performances

Meet Standards -Please Enter Athletes Who Can Meet These Performances.

We have revised our meet standards to better reflect our clientele. Please enter those athletes (and only those athletes) who you feel are "capable of meeting the following standards".

In the past we have a lenient policy, but please don't abuse it. If you think an athlete is close to these marks, he or she should be entered. If you think on his or her best day the mark could be within reach, again, feel free to enter that athlete. If there is no way an athlete could come close to the mark, please...please...please... don't enter him or her.

Again, please enter athletes who you feel will be able to hit these standards.

*Again this year, we are limiting the number of athletes in certain events. We will have the following number of runners in each of these races:

  800 Meters - 60 athletes                 
1600 Meters - 45 athletes            
3200 Meters - 30 athletes.

** STARTING IN 2016 WE WILL LIMIT THE 400 METERS TO THE TOP 80 ENTRIES. We will use times from the previous indoor and outdoor seasons to determine our list.

We are accepting actual times only. Results will be accepted from (a) Loucks 2015, (b) early outdoors 2016, (c) indoors 2015-16. Yes, our committe will convert indoor distances.
AGAIN, NO ESTIMATED SEED TIMES WILL BE ALLOWED. Those who do not make the cut off will be placed on a Provisional Starter List, moving up to compete as scratches are listed.   

**Teams are allowed 2 entries in each of these events: all F/S RACES, Open DMR (not the East Coast), Nick Panaro Relays.

Please note we will limit the size of the pentathlon fields. To assure that your athlete is able to compete at Loucks (in case they don't hit the cutoff) we suggest that you enter them in other events besides the pentathlon.

 *** = Opening Height

 In the Shot Put, Discus, Javelin, Long Jump and Triple Jump markers or lines will indicate the standards. Each athlete will be allowed at least one measured attempt (no matter the distance). After one attempt has been recorded, no attempts short of the meet standards will be measured.
