What Did It Take to Get to State in 2013 and 2014: 3A Boys

<h2 style="text-align: center;"> What has it taken to get to state in years gone by?</h2>


How high do you have to aim to make the state field? This article will help answer that question.

Turning our attention now to 3A Boys, we see what it's taken to advance to state the last two years. 3A lost a few classification members (both directions) this year, which might make qualifying, at least in some events, slightly easier this spring, but the numbers you see below should still be representative of what it will take to advance to state this year.

Numbers in black represent the 2013 minimum qualifying marks. Numbers in blue represent the 2014 minimum qualifying marks. Numbers in parentheses are the counts of scratches from the actual top 18.
