Outside qualification marks
are determined by last year’s 8th place marks. If there is no 8th place mark in
the finals (or deemed out-of-range), then the 8th place mark from
the prelims shall be used. 6 years ago
we used 4th place marks.
Then, when the South Region had 12 teams and qualified 6, the East and
West had 6 teams and qualified 3, and the North had 8 and qualified 4—the games
committee quickly discovered the South had an unfair scoring advantage which no
other sport had to deal with. In the interest
of equity, the games committee opted to lower the qualification standard to 8th
place.
Times for the track events
are listed as FAT. Hand times will only
be accepted for events 300m or longer.
