We will accept the top 24 entries which are wind legal/official (hand times/marks will not be accepted).You may contact us if you feel you have a deserving athlete in an event beyond our limits, and we will work with you if we have room in a heat/section/flight, but entry is not guaranteed. All submissions must be verifiable in the MaxPreps and/or Colorado MileSplit rankings. Top 24 entered relays will be accepted (one relay team per school).
The entry fee for the meet is $10 per event (with a relay counting as a single event) maxing out at $350. This fee will be based on the number of entries your team has on Wednesday, May 8th, and we will send out that information by email on Wednesday evening.
