For
the qualifiers from the Eastern League Finals, this is the big moment.
Each invitee should realize that just making it to this point is a major accompl ishment
in its own right. To many
athletes, this will be the equivalent of participating in an Olympic event,
it certainly looks and feels like an Olympic event.
Old conference records can be and usually are
broken here. It has been said that Southern California produces 50% of
the Nation’s best athletes in Track & Field. The Valley Conference
kids, our kids, are responsible for a fairly large percentage of that number.
At this meet the sprint races (400 meter included)
are nearly impossible to judge, thank goodness for the ACUTRACK camera. You
are all invited to this wonderful spectacle regardless if you have a participating
athlete or not. To top it all, do not miss the always entertaining
Coaches Relay. It is truly the event for which your coach is waiting
to end his/her season.
