Do to a recording error some performances using hip
numbers are unable to be matched with reported times
for heats. Heat info, hip number info and in a
few instances uniform ID has been added to help self
identify.
JV FEMALE Results from 12/17/09
JV MALE Results from 12/17/09
Perspective related to conduct and length of
time for the first JV meet:
1. The number of performances exceeded the varsity
numbers from 12/14, 575 JV to 534 Varsity
and all this on a smaller track.
2. Time of meets JV 3 hrs 15 minutes - Varsity 3
hours.
3. We forget but the first JV meet does more than
just allow for competition but it is the first
experience for many to the confusion and process
that we call a track meet. I guess the
confusion can also apply to meet organizers and
officials.

This indoor season is underway with a well
received "Seeding Meet" at the Reggie Lewis
Track on December 14th.The
team schedule is now set and soon the JV team
schedule will be finalized.
Fewer varsity ML-10 racing dates 9 to 7 with the addition of
an Individual Events Championship at RLT January 26th in that
seven meet schedule.
A separate competitive JV schedule culminating in a JV
Individual Events Championship February 4th.
Snow days are planned separate from the JV schedule so the
practice of JV dates also serving as potential snow dates has
ended.
Meets will run approximately 2 to 2 1/2 hours thus getting our
athletes home at a reasonable hour for week night meets.
Competitive opportunities for all ML-10 athletes will be
enhanced by two multi team meets at RLT. The creation of
a tiered team schedule in blocks 2-6 that pits teams grouped
closer competitively than previous schedules have allowed.
See Document
listed in adjacent panel to follow thinking regarding change.
There have been modifications to the original plan as the
process unfolded but the bulk of the plan is in place.
Coaches
if there are specific things you expect your
athletes to know regarding practices and procedures
for your team and you want them posted here, let me
know and I will post.
The items that I have included in the
general knowledge document cover a broad range of
issues.
Safety at the track
Food and drink in our facilities
Interference
Taunting
Uniform issues
Relay uniform issues
Photo and video use at a track meet
Pacing
ML-10 event listings
Clerking into an event
These sometimes get overlooked in the
hustle and bustle of getting a season started with
so many new athletes. I hope you find this
document helpful in getting your athletes up to
speed.
REMINDER - The deadline for entries for
the 1/27 Championship Meet @ RLT are due on Friday midnight tophillipcrosby@yahoo.com

Composition performance lists of best performances in recorded
2009-10 ML-10 meets. The mix of hand and FAT times has complicated the
sorting process. I decided to list both the best hand and best FAT
time for each athlete in the dash and hurdles. Remember 6.7 hand is
NOT as good as 6.91 FAT. 6.7 converts to
6.94 FAT when you add the 0.24 correction factor.
