2021 TRACK & FIELD STATE MEET STAT BOOK UP TO AND INCLUDING PERFORMANCES FROM THE 2019 STATE MEET History, team champions, runner-up, event champions and State Meet and Class Records 1906-2020 IOWA HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION BOONE, IOWA - 1 - INTRODUCTION This Stat Book represents the research and organization of many people who have been at the forefront and behind-the- scenes of Iowa prep track and field. Our deepest thanks go to Mo Kelley, former IHSAA Publications Director, for his efforts from 1970-June 2001 for launching this book. While this book identifies mainly the past team and event champions, it also represents the IHSAA’s admiration and respect for all the athletes, coaches, officials, and administrators who have nurtured our track and field program to the status it currently enjoys. We hope that as you review the names of our champions, you will note past Olympians - including champions and medal winners, collegiate champions, All-Americans, American and world record holders, collegiate and professional athletes in other sports, and a countless number of successful individuals in all walks of life each who has breathed life into the IHSAA credo of Sportsmanship and Citizenship. To no one’s surprise the same is true of the near champions, other place winners and participants who are not found on the following pages, but share in the tradition of greatness known as Iowa high school track and field. Each remains a hometown champion and hero because of his sacrifice and dedication. That is the legacy that in 2018 celebrates its 113th year and serves as a strong testimonial of the wonderful experience of being a high school athlete. A THANK YOU TO ALL We invite coaches and readers to review the information contained in this book and on the track page of our website. The archives contain an all-time best list of performances, with the first group being metric times and the second group being the all-time yardage bests. We welcome corrections and additions in that list. As we receive verification of performances we may have missed they are added. Times that appear in hundredths are fully-automatic as they are in this book. Other performances are rounded up to the nearest tenth in accordance with official track and field timing procedures. No + or - .24 performances are listed since that quantification is intended for seeding purposes only. The performances in this book are the actual ones recorded at the time. This Stat Book, like others we produce at the IHSAA, is updated annually and available in PDF format on our website. We try and improve the quality and accuracy of the information each year. A special thanks to track administrator Jared Chizek of our staff for his assistance. With over 8,500 names of athletes and schools plus performances, an error(s) in spelling, a typo or an inaccuracy can occur.
