SCOREING

Although comparing times of athletes who did not race head-to-head is normally anathema to cross country, it may be

necessary during the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020. Many jurisdictions are considering (as of June 2020) requiring wave

starts for cross country for the fall of 2020 as a way to reduce the risk of virus transmission.

WAVE FORMATrunners start in waves and the scoring computer adjusts the times of each runner to get their wave or

net time by subtracting the offset from the base time. The meet is then traditionally scored using net times

NOTEthe scoreboard will show the runners gun time not net time at first do not panic

The top five runners will score for each team (5 boys and 5 girls) and the next two are pushers after that the

runners will be not part of the scoring

TIMING:

Greg Wayne ~ Event Management, LLC will use a FLASHTIMING 2000 FPS FAT camera and MeetPro

software by directathletics. this will be our primary system. Runners will wear bib numbers with pull-tags

and will tear off the pull-tag and give to the officials in the chute. Our back-up will be a NK2000 memory

stopwatch that can auto-upload the times. Our fail safe will be a Seiko printable stopwatch.

CHIP TIMING

Juwan has an IPICIO timing system that is compatible with Gregs FAT system and MeetPro software. If we

have enough chips, and have all the necessary cables we will beta test the system and use as a back-up
