The NSAF have released the entry list for the 2013 Outdoor Nationals. Plenty of Jersey in there.

Beaufort alumna Kaila Smith talks about traveling to Central America and how she performed. 

By the looks of it, Rhode Island will be sending a large contingent to this weekend’s New Balance National Outdoor (NBNO) Championships in North Carolina with nearly 30 athletes competing individually and seven relay teams.

The list of Colorado and New Mexico athletes headed to this weekend's New Balance Nationals Outdoor is a short one, but what it lacks in quantity, it makes up for in quality.

As always Florida will bring a strong contingent of athletes to Greensboro, North Carolina and this year's 2013 New Balance Nationals Outdoor will be no different. The event kicks off Friday with the marquee event being the girls and boys 5000m championship and will conclude Sunday. Our MileSplit team will be on hand throughout the weekend with thousands of photos, dozens of video interviews, and up to the minute action and results. Best of luck to all those competing this weekend!

  A strong group of Virginia's elite will make the trip to North Carolina A&T University in Greensboro, North Carolina to compete against some of the best high school track & field athletes in the nation at the 2013 New Balance Outdoor Nationals. MileStat.com will not be on-site, but a quality on-site team from the MileSplit National team and other state webmasters will by carrying the coverage load this weekend.

Day one is mostly low-key, but a unique sprint relay and the 5,000m finals could provide an epic intro two the three days of action in NC!

USATF South Carolina Junior Olympics in Rock Hill and New Balance Nationals in Greensboro, N.C. start today.

The Frankfort Lincoln-Way East road show will not be in attendance in Greensboro this weekend.  Coach Angelo Brown has confirmed that Aaliyah Brown and company will shut it down as the high school team for 2013. Despite the absence of “The Franchise” and her cohorts, the Illinois contingent appears to be a very good one assuming that everyone who is listed competes. Tony Jones along with our MileSplit contingent will be out in full force all weekend with photos, video interviews, and much more!

  Day 2 highlights of performances by Virginians at the 2013 New Balance Outdoor Nationals in Greensboro, North Carolina. The Western Branch girls ran a US #2 all-time performance in the shuttle hurdle relay with their 57.74 relay. Their program has produced great depth in the hurdles over recent years which has played a major role in their team's success at the regional and state level as well as shown today at the national level. Their near national record breaking group of hurdlers on Saturday at North Carolina A&T included Milan Parks, Irielle Little, Funlayo Oluwole, and Devin Heath.
