That's typical for all of us. Our championship season team will most likely have fewer numbers the better we are. Instead of using 3 or 4 throwers to get them experience, we might only use 2. We might scale the District team down to 16-17 kids. 2 throwers, 7-8 sprinters/ hurdles/ jumps, 6-7 distance. If we are not as good, or chances of scoring and advancing is not as strong, add 1-2 kids per group. So 24 ish. Maybe a few more because we have more alternates for relays, but can usually 24-26 would be a max for us.

yeah well aware.
 
Where are your school’s going this weekend for invitationals? I know it’s prom for some schools… Looking at the Poland Invitational, that meet is not how it used to be. Not as many big schools from NEO; mainly D3s from the area.
 
Big marks out of the Wayne Invite the last two evenings...

Jamier Averette-Brown (Wayne) lowers the Ohio Freshmen record to 21.37 (+0.5 wind), breaking the previous record by 0.15 seconds by Gahanna Lincoln's Blake Heriot back in 2007. He also lowered his own frosh record in the 100m to 10.53 (+1.9 wind) (= #21 all-time), 2nd behind Coy Hyre (Brookville) with his own 10.48 PB, who moves to =9 all-time himself.

Mercer Co. meet started 4/30 - finals 5/2. On opening night Toby Kremer (ML) PV 14'10''. On the girls side Anna Roesnner and Izzy zahn of Coldwater finished 1-2 in the 100 prelims- Roessner with a time of 12.38, Zahn 12.45 both breaking the meet record. in the 200 Zahn had the fastest prelim time with a 24. 72 also breaking the old meet record.
 
For those that complain about weather for track in Ohio. This is Alaska. I guess it would cut down on the wind.
