'A' team and 'B' team to compete in the 10 events (no relays, no 3200m, no 300 hurdles, no 200m, and no triple jump) The meet will go fast (4pm - 7:30pm).
4. Schedule related - We will start with an invitational at Mesa Mountain View on Friday March 4th. This 8 team meet will have normal events and additional relay events (medley, hurdle shuttle) and all of the field events will be awarded individually but team scored as a 3 man relay group.
5. Scoring at State Championship is a big challenge starting this spring (55 schools in Division 1). See the attachment for the list of schools.
