State Meet - Qualifying Information

Top 18.

2A-5A will advance the "Top 18" in each event. Ties at 18th place in the rankings in all events will be advanced.

Events affected by an assisting wind include long jump, triple jump, and any race that is not run around the complete oval of the track. For eligibility in these events at the State Championships, the speed of an assisting wind cannot exceed an average velocity of 2.0 meters per second (4.474 mph), as recorded by a wind gauge.

All pole-vaulters will be weighed prior to the start of Qualifiers, Leagues and State Competition. No weight allowances. Vaulters must be on or below their pole weight. All vaulters will be weighed with their competitive uniforms intact (this includes their shoes).

Scoring at most meets

Places in each event, including relays, are scored as follows:

1ST – 10; 2ND – 8; 3RD – 7; 4TH – 6; 5TH – 5; 6TH – 4; 7TH – 3; 8TH – 2; 9TH – 1

For Relay Uniform Compliance, State Officials Interpretation Will Be:

• The front of the uniform top has the same predominant color and the same school name or logo.

• The back of the uniform top has the same predominant color and the same school name or logo.

• Uniform bottom has the same predominant color in the front and back.

• Side panels or side striping on the uniform top and bottom, whether they exist or not, should not be a factor in determining compliance. (Side panels on the uniform top extend from under the arm to the bottom hem. Side panels on the uniform bottom extend from the side waistband to the bottom hem. Side panels wrapping to the front, or the back of the garment do not meet compliance unless all relay team members are wearing them.)
