right. For example, there's at least one school whose record in the javelin 
is some 20 ft. better than the league record, b/c they were in another league 
at the time.

What makes the original post's situation a bit different is that there was no 
formalized league at the time of the record setting performance, although the 
athlete's school became a charter member when it was formed several years 
later.
