The MSCCA Calendar is going to be having some changes to it in next couple of weeks. We are in the process of confirming some dates.

 

The dates of the Tennessee Classic and A.F. Bridges are now believed to be the “3rd and 4th Saturday in September” The dates now listed are Sep. 20 and 27 respectively.

 

The TSSAA has moved the State Cross Country Meet from Saturday November 1st to the day before on Friday October 31st. Mark your calendars!

 

Coach E-Mail Directory(work in progress…)

I have listed most of the e-mail addresses that I have in my address book. If yours is not listed send it to me and I will be happy to post it. ehickerson@dcbe.org Please include the school(s) that you coach with.

 

Coaches of the MSCCA met on November 10th to discuss issues involved with the association. The following items were voted in for the 2008 cross country season.   

      

v   In 2008 the All-Mid State Standings will be based upon 3 races instead of 2. The 3 races will include:

 

1.    The MSCCA Pre-Season Meet

2.    The MSCCA Championship Meet

3.    The TSSAA State Meet Time 

 

**Runners who do not qualify for the state meet or do not run in the state meet may use a time from the Tennessee Classic or A.F. Bridges to take its place. Runners who do not run in the state meet and do not run in either the Tennessee Classic or A.F. Bridges will not be eligible for the All-Mid State Team. As a result of this change, the MSCCA banquet will now be conducted after the state meet. The date for next year’s banquet is November 6, 2008 at Brentwood Academy. Below are some examples for qualifying to the ALL-MSCCA teams.

 

Examples

 

Geddy Lee  Pre-Season 20:35  Champ  20:02  State Meet 19:56 

*Eligible for All MSCCA Team

              *Not Eligible for All MSCCA Team

 

§       Runners must also be part of the varsity team races to be eligible for the MSCCA Team. No JV times will qualify for the MSCCA teams.

§       The distance for middle school races will be at the race director’s discretion. The MSCCA Middle School Championships will be run at a distance of 2 miles. This race will continue to be a qualifier for the KTC/Tennessee Runner State Middle School Championships.

§       Coaches discussed the problems with coaches and schools that do not turn in entries on time.

 

The policy effective next year will be as follows:

Coaches who do not turn in entries on time via the internet will not be allowed to run in the Pre-Season or Championship races. Coaches will be allowed to run their teams in the JV races.

 

§       Below is a tentative schedule for the 2008 season. It includes MSCCA Member meets as well as invitationals held by various schools.
