General Meet InfoThere is always the question as to who is the best freshman? The best sophomore? The best junior? The best senior? This cross country meet will answer those questions using a new and exciting format to high school runners in Florida. This meet will allow the runners to decide for themselves by running against each other head to head. All freshmen will run against freshmen, sophomores against sophomores, juniors against juniors, seniors against seniors. This will be an exciting format for both runners and spectators. Lots of racing, lots of awards, lots of fun for everyone!

Please note:
The course will be closed 35 minutes after the start of each race. With this in mind, any runner who has not completed their race will be "black flagged" and asked to leave the course. This is so that we can keep to the race schedule and teams can prepare properly and keep to their warm-up routines and not be held up on the starting line. Thank you for your team's cooperation in this matter.
