FACA Senior All-Star Final Listing *Updated*

Here is the final listing of the top senior athletes from around the state as selected for the 2013 FACA Cross Country Senior All-Star Meet.

All athletes were selected by the FACA Cross Country Senior All-Star Selection Committee, and were listed primarily by their FHSAA State Championship performances. However, in order to not miss any top athlete that might have had an off day, performances from the three Watch Lists earlier this season were also taken into consideration. If you are listed below, have read the entirety of this article, and wish to compete, then please send an email to Coach McWilliams and Coach Raposo.

Reminder that only the top 8 athletes in each region will be able to compete.
If one of the top 8 rejects their selection, then the selection process will move on to the alternate athletes.

 

FACA All-Star Final Listing: **Updated on: Tuesday, 11/19/13 @ 9:35pm**

All athletes that have confirmed their appearance will be highlighted! Rejections will also be highlighted.
Alternate athletes that have expressed their interest in attending will also be highlighted.

Important Information for potential Senior All-Stars:

Listed below are the competition requirements as stipulated by the Florida Athletic Coaches Association (FACA) for all high school sports and their FACA Senior All-Star games, tournaments, and competitions. If you have any questions about the information listed, please contact Coach Kristin McWilliams, the FACA Cross Country Chair; her email is listed at the end of this article.

Senior All-Star Selection Requirements:

1) Your high school coach must be a member of the Florida Athletic Coaches Association.
- This is a requirement set forth by the FACA Boards of Directors. If your high school coach is a member, then you're good to go! If your high school coach is not a member, then have your high school coach sign up! If you are unsure of your coach's status, Coach McWilliams might be able to let you know if they are a member, although the easiest method would be to contact your high school coach directly and ask them.

Florida Athletic Coaches Association Website , - FACA Online Membership Registration Page , - FACA Membership Benefits Page

2) You and/or your HS coach will need to secure a $75 sponsorship fee for yourself to help cover the cost of the event.
- The $75 sponsorship fee will help cover the cost of everything that goes on with the meet (excluding your personal traveling costs); this includes: Hotel costs, the Friday night banquet, FACA commemorative t-shirts, FACA drawstring bags, All-Star gold medallions, and a plaque for each individual race champion.
- The sponsorship fee should try to be obtained by a team's booster club, the athlete's school, through a parent's work place, or even by a local business or local running store. All athletes that make the final selection process will receive a sponsorship donation request form to help all athletes obtain the donation fee.

After reading and understanding all of the posted information, if you wish to confirm or reject your participation status for this year's FACA Senior All-Star Meet, please let us know as soon as possible. Once confirmed, participation information will be emailed out to you with all of the requirements for being able to compete. Also, In order to allow all interested athletes a fair opportunity to be able to compete, we please ask that all officially selected athletes send in their race confirmations or rejections by Saturday, November 16th. Starting Sunday, if we do not have a final confirmation, then we will open the race selections to the alternate and/or other interested athletes.

Thank you!
