Relay Team Members Clarification
At the conclusion of each Region Scratch Meeting (or if NO scratch meeting is held, when Region Meet competition begins), the competitors' names listed on the MileSplit site for each Relay entered
CANNOT be changed.
These Relay names remain the SAME throughout the State Meet Series: Region / Sectional / State
Meets and are the ONLY eligible participants for Relay Teams throughout the State Meet Series.
NO replacements may be made of the eight competitor's Relay names advancing from the Region
Meet to the Sectional Meet, nor Sectional Meet to State Meet.
Any four (4) of the competitors listed with a Region Meet Relay entry may run on that relay team in
any round of advancement (Region, Sectional, State Meet Semi-finals and Finals), and in any order
desired.
Athlete Replacement (Region Meet to Sectional Meet) Clarification
1. When a Region Meet qualifier cannot compete in the Sectional Meet, the next competitor in the order of finish will be selected as a replacement. The coach of the qualifying competitor unable to compete MUST notify the Region Meet Director of that competitor's inability to advance and compete in the next round of competition.
2. The Region Meet Director MUST contact the coach of the next competitor in the order of finish and verify the selection and replacement of that competitor for the Sectional Meet with that competitor's coach.
3. All REPLACEMENTS from Region Meets to Sectional Meets must be submitted ELECTRONICALLY on the MileSplit site. ONLY the REGION MEET DIRECTOR may make confirmed changes and/or corrections. The DEADLINE for all changes is 12:00 noon on Wed., April 30, 2025.
4. All Sectional Meet entries will be posted on the MileSplit website for verification. Schools will not receive paper copies of their qualified athletes. It is the responsibility of EACH COACH to review that school's entries on the web site and immediately notify the Region Meet Director if corrections need to be made. 5. A contestant disqualified in a Region Meet may not participate in the Sectional Meet in the event in which (s)he was disqualified.
