Re: t-and-f: Montana State Meet results
Hmmm... Montana must not belong to the National Federation, which stipulates in its rule book that a high school athlete can compete in no more than 4 events in a meet. I would think with this girl having a hand in racking up 70 points in the state meet (did Conrad win the championship?) a half way savvy coach from another team might file a protest! *John Beattie* [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Original Message - From: "Tony Banovich" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Jack Shepard" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "John Dye" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "Mike Kennedy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "track and field list" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, May 29, 2002 6:48 PM Subject: t-and-f: Montana State Meet results > Following are the highlights from the State H.S. meets May 24th and 25th in > Montana.

RE: t-and-f: Montana State Meet results
The National rules are in effect IF THERE ARE NO STATE RULES THAT SUPERCEDE THE NATIONAL RULES. Example, in Florida at the state championships in Palm Beach County (I thought I would give you a set up for a counting joke), the athletes were allowed a maximum of 5 events of which no more than 3 could be running events. BTW, the event rules goes for the entire track season. Florida is a member of the National Association.

Back in the 80s when the sport switched from Imperial to metric, CT was among the intelligent ones that ran 1500/3000. After a few years they switched to the current assinine 1600/3200 to be in compliance w/ Federation events; the explanation given was that failure to do so would result in loss of Federation membership or sanctioning or some such. If this is NOT the case I am launching a full scale effort to switch to REAL distances immediately. Jim Gerweck Running Times
Re: t-and-f: Montana State Meet results
Our state coaches' association spoke a few years ago of limit changes and we were presented with a sample of what some states have in effect. If I remember, they ranged from one open, one relay (Mass?) to any 10 (Arkansas?). This was about 6 years ago. I assume that if that was true, it was for the purpose of decathlon scoring? As for national rules (someone else's message here), there are still several states that run non-standard events (eg VT running 3k/1500m) and even additional events (Maine racewalk).

And RI has the hammer. Jeez, VT & RI run 1500/3000? I didn't realize that 1/3 of New England still has Yankee common sense. Jim Gerweck Running Times
