Final Seeding Available The final seeding for the meet is available here. Please make sure your athletes check in at least 30 minutes prior to their event at the Clerk of the Course located at the end of the track closest to the finish line. We will reseed an event if doing so will reduce the number of heats, or it effects the first (fastest heat) in each event. There have also been some monir changes to the schedule. Please be aware that we will run the meet ahead of schedule if given the opportunity (but no more than 30 minutes). Please pay attention to first calls! |
