To say this meet had some controversy is an understatement. In the Boys PV the box broke, after long delay maybe 2hrs. it was decided to use the old box and "run up". Some of the vaulters had passed at lower heights and after a long delay failed to clear their "opening height". A protest has been filed but doubt if it goes anywhere, not sure why the powers to be did not wait till the running finals - 2 days later to finish the PV. Then in the girls 400 meter race a protest was filed after the race as several girls did not recognize the starting sound. They reran the race 20 mins after the meet was "over" a runner could stick with their 1st time or rerun the race and have to go with the 2nd time. 2 runners reran the race, one being the girl who finished 5th, her time ended up putting her into 4th and the regionals. To say there were a few upset fans, coaches and at least one athlete would be an understatement.
