1. Up through and including the league meet, if a runner finishes in the top seven on the team in a 5k race FOUR or more times they will receive a letter. 
    

1. Times for varsity race and the open race will be combined to determine the top seven team finishers for a given meet.
2. A qualifying time will also count as being in the top seven.

-         For Boys – Break 19:00 (Run 18: something)

-         For Girls – Break 23:00 (Run 22: something)

OR

2. If a runner competes on the varsity team at the District Meet, Regional Meet, or State Meet they will receive a letter. 

3. The coach has the privilege to letter a runner under special circumstances.

-example: A senior who has been a member of the squad for 2 or more years may be given a letter for contributing to the overall program.  This is not automatic, but determined by the coaches.  However if the runner has lettered in a previous year, they have already lettered, so this will not apply.

A runner who is dismissed from the team will NOT receive a letter or recognition.
