15th Annual LHU Bald Eagle Invitational (postponed to 4/21) 2013

Lock Haven, PA

Meet Information

We regret to inform everyone that the LHU Invitation scheduled for tomorrow (FRIDAY, 4/19) has been postponed until Sunday, April 21st. It is predicted that some severe wind, rain, and thunderstorms are in the forecast, and rather than have teams get here and not compete, we felt it was best to move the meet to Sunday.

The predicted weather for Sunday is near 60 degrees, Sunny, and 0% chance of rain. Unfortunately, due to our own teams competition schedule, we are unable to hold the meet on Saturday.

An updated schedule and meet information (field events start at noon; track events begin at 1pm) is at the bottom of this email.

Additionally, we are now allowing FOUR entries in all events except the javelin and discus which will allow THREE entries.
First legal jumps and throws will be measured regardless of distance (this is a change from the original standards).

The Entry Deadline on Directathletics has been extended until Friday evening at 9pm.

Please call us with any questions (information below).

Also, please respond to this email to confirm if your teams will or will not be in attendance.

IF YOUR TEAM IS NOT ATTENDING, PLEASE REMOVE YOUR ENTRIES FROM DIRECTATHLETICS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

We apologize for any inconvenience this provides for you and your teams.

We hope to see you all at our future events!

Thank You.
