Athletes will have that window to complete their 3 jumps.  *The long jump is based on a 60 minute window, however, if all athletes have completed their jumps before the 60 minutes allotted, the time for the girls long jump will be moved up.  Athletes and coaches are responsible for listening to the PA system for announcements about the start of a field event.

3.  The high jump will run like a regular meet. Athletes need to report and check into the high jump on time or they will be scratched. The bar will be set 2 inches below the lowest seed, but not under 3'8".
