Regional Meet
1.
In
the Regional Meet, you may enter up to 10 runners, but can run only 7 maximum
at the regional race. As always, please
try to bring at least 5 runners to make a full team, so each region may send as
many teams as possible to states. Five
runners must start the race, but are not required to finish the race, to have a
complete team. The team must have
competed in a minimum of 5 meets, but there is no minimum for individual
runners for regional competition.
2.
Per the
Interscholastic Entries must be done using "RaceTimeEntry.com". Mailed or faxed
entries will not be permitted! We will pull entries on Sunday,
October 18. Please make sure that
the names of the athletes that you enter are on your eligibility certificate
and that they are spelled correctly.
Qualifying for the
State Meet:
1.
To qualify as an individual: Each region will
qualify 20% of the number of contestants that start the regional race to
the state meet inclusive of those individuals that qualified as a team
qualifier, with a minimum of 10 individuals qualifying from each region.
Regular math rounding (.5 & up, round up, below .5, round down) will apply.
2.
To qualify as a team: This depends on how many complete
teams (5 or more runners) start in your regional. If
only 1 full team starts, only the regional champion qualifies. If 2-5 teams
start at your regional, the top 2 teams qualify. If 6-9 teams start at your
regional, the top 3 teams qualify. If 10 or more teams start at the regional
race, the top 4 teams qualify.
3.
If your teams qualifies for
states, all runners submitted for the Regional Meet are automatically submitted
to the state meet. This provides the
runner a state meet tag/jersey number.
