Knights Invite Results

Saturday, February 24 2024 - Indoor Knights Invitational


First of all, I would like to tell you all how immensly proud I am of you at the meet yesterday.  We conducted ourselves with character, and this has been one of the best opening meets that we have had in awhile!

Meet results can be found here.

How to Qualify for Top Times

For those that are new, our first four meets are indoor meets, and the Illinois Top Times meet acts as a defacto "indoor state" meet.  It is a bit different, however; to qualify, one has to hit one of the best marks at any point in the indoor season; there is not an official qualifying standard.  The qualification process can be found here.

Here is where we currently sit, although this is a very dynamic process and there will be multiple changes (I'm looking at athletic.net)

ITT STANDINGS

Things that I am 99.9999% sure will qualify based on past results:

-Danny Skelton, 60 HH

-4x800

Things that were under the cutoff time last year, but are a toss up:

4x400 (we were.3 under the 12th qualifying team last year, but are by NO MEANS safe)

Ryan Driskill, 3200 (about 2 seconds under last years last qualifyer)

Events that are close to the cutoff: 4x200, about .8 off
