Declarations Received
Important:
Read the list of standards that appears below.
Do not enter athletes who are not capable of
meeting these standards.
Our meet is growing and we do not want to reject
athletes - BUT WE WILL IF WE ARE FORCED TO.
Thus, a male athlete who has never run a 1600m
faster than 5:15 probably won't drop down to the
4:40 standard.
Please be realistic with your seeds and your
imagination.
Payment
is due by April 29th.
No
exceptions.
If you can get the Penn Relays payment on time,
you can get ours done too.
"If you build it, he
(they) will come."

Our Meet
Standards
We have revised our
meet standards to better reflect our clientele.
Please enter those athletes
(and only those
athletes) who you feel are capable of
meeting
the following standards.
We have a lenient policy, but please don't abuse
it. If you think an athlete is close to these
marks, he or she should be entered. If you think
on his or her best day the mark could be within
reach, again, feel free to enter that athlete.
If there is no way
an athlete could come close to the mark,
please...please...please... don't enter him or her.
Teams that abuse this
request will be denied future entry into the meet.
