Meet Information
The 2023 Mustang Invitational is shaping up to be the biggest and best one in its history.New Track and New Runways are both in store. Please read the info sheet well, as the format is a little different than most meets. Our plan is to test an OPEN Javelin area ,but are still working out details and feasibility.
According to FHSAA rules, athletes may only participate in 4 events (running or field). You may enter only TWO (2) athletes per event in all running and field events, with the exception of the 100m and the 1600m, where each team is allowed to enter 5 per gender. Please be considerate when entering entry marks,as the heats will be seeded based on time. All athletes with no entry marks will be given no time, and will be seeded last.Athletes in the long jump, triple jump, shot put, and discus will receive 3 throws and jumps. Starting heights for the Pole Vault and HighJump are on the event sheet. Minimum marks for all others will be established and shared at the Coaches Meeting.
The running events will be on a rolling schedule. All running events will be finals and all heats are against time. There will be NO prelims. There will be a large amount of athletes so please be sure to have your athletes ready to compete
Entries must be submitted on www.directathletics.com by Tuesday, March 7th. Once closed, entries will not open back up. This allows us to establish Unseeded heats for the 1600m and 3200m and get to coaches earlier.
Please contact Chris Sumner at 850-567-6175 or LFCSumner3@gmail.com with any concern or questions regarding entries.
The top 4 individuals and top 4 relay teams in each event will receive awards.
