LINE UP AS OF (Update Friday, June 6 - 8:00 AM)

THE ORDER OF NAMES DOES NOT MEAN YOU HAVE TO RUN THAT ORDER IN THE RELAYS.  THE 4 ATHLETES CAN DISCUSS THIS SO WE HAVE AN IDEA WHEN WE MEET IN IOWA.

Our Goal is to fill open event spots with seniors who place in the top 2 (sometimes 3 if extremely close - Looking at A and AA combined) given first choice, then we look at seniors who have had the top marks in the state heading into the state meet and have shown an interest in the meet, then we begin filling relays with seniors who placed in state using prelim and final times and have contacted us prior to the state meet (again, both A and AA).  After these athletes have been given the opportunity to compete, we then begin filling the events with athletes that may not have qualified or placed at state due to whatever reason and have shown interest in the meet.  This has been the fairest way we have been able to come up with and allow as many athletes in the state a chance to compete together on one team - TEAM ILLINOIS.

We will work with you on making this line up, but we want to be fair to everyone participating.
