NCRunners Finalizes Elite Track & Field Invitational

Featuring the Frosh/Soph Invitational, the UNOFFICIAL JV State Championship, on April 28, 2012

 

NCRunners is proud to announce the second event in the NCRunners Elite series, to be held at Mount Tabor High School in Winston-Salem on April 28, 2012.  The NCRunners Elite Track & Field Invitational will feature a long-standing favorite in North Carolina, the Frosh/Soph Invitational that has been nicknamed "the UNOFFICIAL JV State Championship."  These events are designed to give younger athletes a chance to shine as the focus of the day, especially if they are concluding their season because they are not able to compete for their school at the conference and/or regional meet.  The meet will also feature 7 invitation-only Elite events, which will serve as a tune-up for athletes headed into the postseason.  The meet falls on the last date for regional qualification, and it meets the criteria for a regular-season meet, so NCHSAA teams from any classification can attend.  NCISAA teams, club teams, and eligible unattached athletes are also welcome.
