55th Annual Castiglione-Tobin

HORNELL INVITATIONAL TRACK & FIELD MEET

ENTRIES: We have 20 full teams for boys and 19 for girls. We are capping at a maximum of seven (7) heats of six (6) runners per heat.

Coaches may enter one team for each relay event (relay entries should include all possible runners with a maximum of 6) and up to three (3) athletes per event, with limitations*. We will guarantee each team two (2) athletes. If spaces remain, we will fill out the lanes with additional athletes according to best seed times. Again, we will not bump one of your two guaranteed athletes.

*Regardless of number of teams entered, shot put, discus, pole vault, 3000/3200, and steeplechase competitors will be limited (see details below)

Entries must be made on our MileSplit page, located here:

SEEDING:
  1.  F.A.T. will be provided by Wellsville Track & Field Timing. All athlete entries will be completed on MileSplit. Again, no team

    will have one of its two guaranteed athletes bumped in favor of a third athlete with a better seed time.

  2.  Scratches will be allowed, but no additions. Also, there will be no re-seeding if athletes are scratched! Coaches, if you anticipate leaving early, PLEASE DO NOT ENTER RUNNERS LATER EVENTS, ESPECIALLY IN THE 200! Because we cannot re-seed, this creates races with empty lanes that take more time than necessary. We take pride in running an efficient meet, and late scratches result in teams getting home later than they should. Thanks for your cooperation.

  3.  Notice regarding the shot put, discus, steeplechase, and 3200/3000 meter runs.

    Submit up to maximum allowed based on meet enrollment. However, because of time and facility limitations, the following will occur to facilitate meet management:

Shot put and discus: The level of competition will determine the field, with a minimum of 32 (4 flights of 8) and a maximum of 40 (4 flights of 10). Flights will be ordered from highest to lowest seed. Throwers in the top one or two  flights (as determined by thrower skill) will receive four throws in these respective events (no finals). The remaining flights will have two or three throws based on lighting conditions.

PoleVault: As stated above for throwing events, we will make a judgment based on quality of jumpers and total number of entries. We will have two vaulting areas again this year.

Steeplechase and 3200/3000 meter runs: We will limit entries to create one heat of each with a manageable number of runners (we have traditionally capped at 24). Runners with the best seed times will be selected.
