I may be cynical ,but when Devin Jenkins runs 10.68 in the 100,then I am no longer so cynical about those 4.3 forty times. I am glad to see that Hawaii is now producing athletes capable of elite marks in the 100 meter dash after a long hiatus following Bryan Clay.

Coming Monday my picks for the girls State meet on Maui. Go ahead and make your own picks. I got my plane ticket would not miss this for anything. Could be one of the best state meets for both boys and girls in a very long time.

STATES
This year has a great number of competive athletes statewide. Not just the #1s but one thru twenty. It was really hard just to qualify. There are some good runners and field event athletes this year that might not get into the top 26 that would have in previous years qualied easily. To make FINALS this year will be really impressive. There will be some great individuals and races to watch at STATES. Good job to all that have worked hard to make to the top 26 list in your event.

Re: 2011 High School track and field
I agree, that there have been great performances this year, driving the level of competition up beyond the consideration standards set for qualifying for States. But this is also because the Consideration Standard formula, as described in the State Coaches Info Packet (http://www.sportshigh.com/files/content ... 110427.pdf), on Page 17 on the April 27 Updated Copy (page 3 of the HHSAA Handbook – Track & Field), still uses the top 32 times and marks from the last 2 years, and is not based on the 26 places it was reduced to by the State's 20% reduction policy, as the result of budget cuts.
Either way, the Automatic/Consideration Standard is a fairer way of determining state qualifiers, rather than only setting one qualifying standard that is both high enough to encourage a higher level of performances and low enough to not unfairly eliminate athletes who deserve to be competing at the State Championship, which sometimes occured with the old method.
I agree that both ways have the uncertainty of being eliminated by the numbers game, currently 26 & previously 32, but the current system allows athletes to shoot for a standard that will ensure qualification and raise everyones performances, while still allowing for maximum participation for those deserving to be at the State Championship.
