Non-Member and Past Due Policy

The Tri-State Track Coaches Association will hold the 2014 Cross-Country Championship Meet on Thursday, October 16, 2014 at California University of PA. In keeping with the format used at the WPIAL Cross Country Championship, we will be running a series of races based on school classification. The course will be walked at 1:00 p.m. The first race, Mens AAA Varsity Race will begin promptly at2:00 p.m. We will use a rolling schedule for all the following races with a maximum time allotment for each race of 45 minutes. The order of races for this year will be Mens AAA, Womens AAA, Mens AA/A, Womens AA/A. (The race order will change next year with the AA/A races first.) The Junior Varsity Race for all classifications will be run at the conclusion of the Womens AA/A Race. The JV Race may be split into a Mens and Womens Division. This decision will be based on the number of entries into this race.

This year we will be using the timing chip supplied by Miles of Smiles. We have found that this system provides the quickest and most accurate method for scoring the meet. Each coach is responsible for registering his / her own team. Each team can register on-line at www.pa.milesplit.com Registration Site which is the same registration site used the WPIAL Championship. This site will be closed at 5:00 p.m. - Monday, October 13th, 2014. No entries will be accepted after this time. There will be no exceptions! Each team is permitted to run up to ten (10) individuals in each Varsity Races and no limit to the individuals in the JV Race.

Due to the cancellation of several Indoor Meets at Edinboro last year, there will be not assessment fee for this years meet for TSTCA members.
