Track season pushed back a month
The Santa Cruz Interscholastic Sports League executive committee decided Monday to reschedule the track meet postponed last week until April 24-25, just after the basketball varsity finals.
The effect of the scheduling change is basically to push back the track season, hopefully until after the rainy season is over. The meet that was postponed was to be the first of two track meets. It will now be the second. It is hoped that the track meet scheduled for March 28-29 will go forward as planned, and become the first meet of the season. (Are you following all this, readers?)
The points from the two meets will be totaled to determine where each school finishes. The order of finish in the first meet determines lane assignments for the second meet. In terms of individual achievements, the winners of the second meet will receive medals as league champions.
The April meet will be run after school on a Thursday and Friday afternoon, rather than a Friday afternoon and Saturday morning, as has been the case in the past, and as is the case with the March meet. Still to be determined is the question of which day the running events and field events will be run at the April meet. This will depend on the availability of Tahuichi Stadium.
