Dear Coach:

            This is some information on the 2023 Doddridge Host Harrison County Invitational Track Meet to be held on Friday, March 31, 2023, at Cline Stansberry Stadium in West Union, WV.  Please note that this will be the 54th edition of the DHHC Invitational Track Meet.

Time: We will be running the modified one session meet schedule.  At 4:00pm we will start the Girls 3200m run as well as the Field events (Boys:  Pole Vault, Long Jump, & Discus; Girls: High Jump & Shot Put).  The Boys 3200m run will follow the Girls 3200m run. We will then run the Girls 400m dash and Boys 400m dash, followed by a 20-minute break before starting the rest of the running events following the regular order of events.

Awards:  Trophies will be given to the top 2 teams and to the top individual in both the boys’ and girls’ divisions.  Also, winners of each individual event will receive medals.  Ribbons will be awarded to relay placers 1 – 6 and to placers 2 – 6 in individual events.

Entry Fee:  $50 per team ($100 total for boys and girls).  Please make checks payable to DCHS Athletics. 

Entry Deadline:  Hy-Tek entries need to be e-mailed to runwv@runwv.com by Monday, March 27, 2023.  The event file that is needed will be posted on www.runwv.com.  If you haven’t had a meet yet, please use reasonable estimates when entering your athletes.  (Not past PR’s, but what is likely now.)  

Entries:  You may enter unlimited individuals in each individual event and 2 relay teams in each relay event.

Scratches:  Please email your scratches and replacements by noon on Friday, March 31 to runwv@runwv.com. Last minute scratches and replacements will also be accepted until 3:30pm at the meet.  If possible, please make every effort to get this information to us on by noon on Friday.

Miscellaneous: Starting blocks will be provided. We will have 8 sets of blocks at each starting line. We hope that you will use our starting blocks, but if you bring your own, you will be responsible for carrying them from event to event.  The longest spikes allowed on our track are ¼ inch.  Participants in the throws and long jump will get 4 attempts.  There will be no finals in these events!
