Meet Information
PLEASE NOTE: DUE TO LIMITED ENTRIES AFTER WE HAD TO CHANGE THE DATE DUE TO ANOTHER EVENT SCHEDULED AT PHS, WE HAVE HAD TO CANCEL SHARPTOP FOR THIS YEAR. PLEASE LOOK FOR US AGAIN NEXT YEAR!
PLEASE NOTE: Since we had to move the date to 3/23, we have lost many of the original teams.
In trying to rebuild the field, we are now allowing 4 ENTRIES PER LANE EVENT, UNLIMITED ENTRIES IN THE 800 / 1600 / 3200 AND HAVE LOWERED THE ENTRY FEE TO $35 PER GENDER TEAM!
If you are looking for a larger meet where you can get more of your athletes involved for a modest entry fee - then this is your meet!
