Athletes!!! The following is information about the Midwest Meet of Champions. It's a great opportunity to travel and to compete against some of the top athletes from other states.

The Midwest Meet of Champions is a four team All-Star Track and Field Meet composed of athletes from Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, and West Virginia. Each state fields a team of its best senior athletes for this mythical battle for track and field supremacy in the Midwest.

The teams will meet at Ohio Wesleyan University in Delaware, Ohio on Friday, June 11 where they will be fed and housed prior to Saturday's meet. The West Virginia Association of Track and Cross Country Coaches will sponsor West Virginia Athletes.

This meet is unique in that it is the only All-Star Meet in the country that crowns a team champion. It receives wide media coverage and is attended by numerous college coaches looking to fill scholarship quotas.

Teams from Ohio, Michigan, and Indiana have been very successful in the past with many future All-Americans and even Olympians participating. West Virginia is a relative newcomer, and this will be their third trip to the meet.

The team is selected after the State Meet with consideration to performances at that meet as well as throughout the season. Our goal as always is to recruit the best senior athletes available in West Virginia and we hope that you are interested in representing the State in this prestigious meet.

If you are interested in being considered for this meet, please mail the form below to one of the coaching staff listed below. If you have already done SO, there is no need to send a second form. Thanks for your consideration.

The estimated cost to participate in the meet is $50.00. This will include a banquet on Friday night, one night stay at Ohio Weslyan University, and your uniform (which you get to keep).
