PREP TRACK: Full list of regional qualifiers for TGN area
May 21—The full list of athletes competing at the regional track meets has been posted.
Girls track regionals are scheduled to be held Tuesday, with Goshen News coverage area athletes competing at ones hosted by Goshen and Fort Wayne Carroll high schools. The boys regionals are Thursday, with area athletes participating at Warsaw and Carroll.
Four sectionals feed into each regional, with each sectional having three automatic qualifiers in every event. At-large spots are then claimed by the next best performances across the four sectionals. Most events have 16 total athletes competing, while others have as many as 20 in the field.
The top three in each event at regionals will automatically advance to the state championship meet. There will be at-large spots claimed for the state meet as well, with 27 total competitors advancing in each event. The boys state finals are Friday, June 2, and the girls Saturday, June 3 at Indiana University in Bloomington.
Here is a look at the full list of track athletes from The Goshen News coverage area that will be competing in regionals this week, which covers all of Elkhart County, as well as Wawasee, West Noble and Westview. The full rundowns can be found on the IHSAA website.
