Even the SAT will now give an adversity score depending on where you live. Perhaps socio-economic status should be a factor in the equality of division placement as much as population?

He's not a a point where it's realistic for him to try for both. We're hoping next year he will be ready for that double. Good luck this Saturday and bring your rain gear!

I am incredibly impressed by any athletes that qualify for CIF in such a competitive state, even more so those that qualify in multiple events. Someone trying to double would be looking at 4 tough heats over the course of about 24 hours. The school calendar also has to be taken in to account, in years past, there were always athletes that had to decide between their high school graduations and competing at the state meet, hopefully the move up has reduced or eliminated that. I think the format makes it hard for the middle distance/long distance athletes to produce their fastest times, but with such a large geographical state there are no easy solutions. I'll be looking forward to seeing your son (and all of the other incredible athletes) compete this weekend at Davis. There is something truly special about seeing a young athlete's dreams come true by even making it to state, best of luck to all competing this weekend.

With only a semifinal and final, those meets are indeed spaced one week apart. I wish they could divide the first round into two divisional meets but then I believe we would have to go back to back for the semis and finals. I was in NCS and they also have semis and finals on back to back days. I don't know if there is a good solution that would work for everybody so that teams can compete against like-sized schools in the opening round and still be able to space the semis and finals so it's not back to back. I believe NCS teams have considered changing the format before but nothing has changed so far.Albert Caruanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14434646351717864405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31292861.post-46483855177299034252019-05-15T14:41:04.690-07:002019-05-15T14:41:04.690-07:00My son has been running track for 5 years and this...My son has been running track for 5 years and this is his first year in HS (800m and 1600m).He has been taught since Day 1 to never look at the scoreboard. His coaches or I have always given him his splits so there's never any confusion. At this point, he can also feel the difference between the pacing so that he definitely knows if he's running a 57 or 61 on a 400m split. He could of easily made the at large times in the 800 and 1600 and leagues and divisionals and took it easy but we didn't want to chance it. He went out and ran hard and took a first and second at both. I guess what's surprising to me is that people are justifying the fact that because technology failed, these kids should get a second chance. We didn't even have a scoreboard at our league finals! If my son had been in this exact same position, I would not have allowed him to participate in a run off nor would he have wanted to because he would accepted that it was his fault. Running the 80O and 1600 or 1600 and 3200 is not an excuse for not going hard. If you can't do the double turnaround, then don't run both! On a side note, how can we get the SJS to hold Master's prelims and finals a week apart. That must be nice!Dan Steplightnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31292861.post-64161446556283666662019-05-15T14:39:56.446-07:002019-05-15T14:39:56.446-07:00If this was a rerun of all effected races I would ...If this was a rerun of all effected races I would be fine with it.
