Each section is allowed TWO (2) entries per individual event, with a possible third entry if the individual has placed third in their state-qualifying meet and has met the qualifying standards. Refer to the qualifying standards for information regarding the third entry. Each section is allowed up to TWO relays, if the second relay has met the standard, and has finished second in the state qualifying meet, in the 800m, 1600m, and 3200m Relays. The boys and girls Intersectional Relay will be composed of your third place finishers in the 300, 600, 1000, and 1500/1600 meter races, unless those individuals have met the qualifying standards. Those athletes must then compete in the individual event, and then the fourth place finisher competes in the relay. A section may list up to two alternates for the intersectional medley relay, provided that that individual is not competing in the individual 300, 600, 1000, or 1500/1600m runs.
