Important information for high school coaches registration. You must enter your meet roster on Direct Athletics into either the Friday or Saturday division pool then also register your team on MileSplit as well by selecting your divisions if racing on Friday and/or Saturday as well if bringing a JV squad to race on Saturday before paying your entry fee online within the MileSplit registration system. The only exception is out of state high school teams only need to register on MileSplit. 

Your team is not fully entered in the meet if you do register on both platforms. This is to insure we have accurate accounting of entry fee payments and race day declaration on one platform. 

High school coaches do not need to enter their meet roster twice on MileSplit, but exclusively on Direct Athletics. MileSplit is simply again to select intent on bringing a squad to race on Friday and/or Saturday and if bringing a JV Squad as well as paying your entry fee online. 

All middle school and elementary school coaches as well as the club and unattached athletes at the middle school and elementary school must register exclusively on MileSplit.

We will announce Saturday varsity team assignments on Monday, October 2nd for the high school squads whether team will be placed in the Race of Champions, Jason Byrne Invitational, or Unseeded varsity races. We will be ranking and breaking the Saturday varsity high school teams into 3 tiers with the top ranked teams in ROC, next tier in JBI, and remaining varsity teams in unseeded. 

If your high school team is only racing on Friday, we are only offering one race for each gender so can put unlimited runners on the line for those races including varsity and JV runners. 

However, Saturday's varsity team races are limited to 10 runners per team but can put you remaining runners unlimited in the Saturday JV race. 

This meet is sanctioned by the NFHS and will submit our final team list after entries close on Saturday to insure sanctioning approval for all states with teams attending.

If you are only entering a few individuals at the $15/rate and notice your entry fee amount reflects the higher entry fee based on entering full squads into the meet, email meet management for us to manually change those amounts for a correct invoice to be paid.
