Meet Information

2026 Mustang Invitational UPDATED Info 

I want to communicate our updated plan for the Mustang



Invitational on Thursday, March 12. The meet **is not cancelled**.

Please see the

attached schedule of events. There are several important updates-please

adjust your schedules and entries accordingly:

1. **Unseeded heats** have been moved up 15 minutes and will

now begin at **2:00 PM**.

2. We will **not** run an unseeded 3200m. All 3200m runners

will compete prior to the 4x400 at the conclusion of the meet.

3. The meet will now operate on a **rolling schedule**.

4. We understand this may create challenges for field

events. With your assistance, athletes should check out when necessary and

return promptly. They should remain at their field event until they are called.

5. For **Javelin**, two throwing areas will be used for the

first flight of both divisions. All subsequent flights will take place on the

practice field in front of the school.

6. **Discus** will begin immediately following the first

flight of Boys Javelin.

7. We will review field event entries to determine whether

stricter minimum requirements are necessary.

We are also working to provide shelter for student-athletes

and coaches in the event of a lightning delay. If you arrive with a charter or

large bus, we ask that you use it as your primary shelter location. Coaches

will still have access to a hospitality room, though it may be relocated to a

classroom if the cafeteria is needed for team shelter.
