New dates of July 16-19 set for 2020 Outdoor Nationals

by Steve Underwood


Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have moved the 2020 Outdoor Nationals to the new dates of Thursday-Sunday, July 16-19.  These are tentative dates and depend totally on the guidance of national, state and local governments.  We will continue to post updates as further definitive information is available (hopefully next 2-4 weeks).  We continue to be cautiously optimistic we can host the meet on the new scheduled dates and wish everyone good health and safety in the meantime.

Registration was opened for the meet two weeks ago. Please go HERE to register: (https://www.athletic.net/TrackAndField/meet/387579/register).  While we have opened registration, we aren’t accepting payments at this time.

Once it is confirmed that the meet will indeed take place, entry fees will then be activated. Registrants will be notified of due dates and changes as they arise. Notification will be via the email system in Athletic.net using the email address on your account.  It is important that registrants check the email address you have in the Athletic.net system to ensure that it is accurate.

Another of the most important things to know about qualifying for Outdoor Nationals is that we have adopted standards to allow for using marks from the 2020 indoor and 2019 outdoor seasons for qualifying. Please go to the updated STANDARDS page (https://www.nationalscholastic.org/nbon/standards/) for more information on that.

We have also relaxed entry standards for the freshman events.

Other details regarding the meet remain the same at this time. You can view those by going to the MEET INFO (http://nationalscholastic.org/nbon/info) page.

We hope next month that we’ll be able to confirm our hosting of the meet. Meanwhile, again, good health and safety to all.
