In the long jump and triple jump, if your athlete has a jump that will rank them in the top 18 and it is not their best jump of the meet, please let Coach Neibauer know in writing at the conclusion of the meet. This situation could arise if your athletes best mark is wind-aided. Normally only the longest jumps are recorded in the meet results. So, if we need to submit a second mark for one of your athletes that is not wind-aided let me know.
