You can check out my selections for top "15" athletes from the 2017 Track and Field season at this LINK. There are 7 Northern California that are included in the list. Feel free to add other athletes who you feel should have also been included. It's very possible I could have missed somebody. If you feel some athletes should be moved up or down, please feel free to let me know in the comment section below. In the next couple of weeks, I will also be posting the state contenders from each Northern California section.
What are the deadlines and qualifying standards for the Stanford and Arcadia track invites, and do they use last year’s marks or only marks made this track season?
Assuming that the standards haven't changed over the past couple years:
Stanford Invitational (From 2013)
Boys 1600 - 4:29.9 3200 - 9:59.9
Girls 1600 - 5:17.9 3200 - 11:44.9
*The website stated that times from 2012 OR 2013 could be used as entry marks*
Arcadia Invitational (From 2017)
Boys 800 - 1:59 1600 - 4:25 3200 - 9:42
Girls 800 - 2:20 1600 - 5:11 3200 - 11:20
* Greater weighting is given to 2017 indoor/outdoor marks over 2016 marks. However, some states begin their competition calendar later than others, or have had their 2017 calendar affected by inclement weather. In such cases, 2016 marks will be considered.*

ReplyDeleteIf anybody has figured out what gets an athlete or team into the Stanford Track and Field Invitational, please share with the rest of the class.
ReplyDeleteStill not sure which one uses last years times vs times for this track season only. Anyone know?
