Meet Information

Hurricane Invitational

Coaches, September 21, 2014

West Harrison High School would like to invite you to the Hurricane Invitational to be held on Saturday, October 25th. The entry fee is $75.00 per school or $50.00 if only one gender is entered.

West Harrison is not able to trade entry fees this year. Our Athletic Director informed me that we will be paying entry fees to every school whose race we attend. Therefore, each school will need to pay entry fees unto us. Please make checks payable to Harrison County Athletic Department. You may bring your checks to the meet or mail them to Harrison County School District, Attention Viletta McCormick, 11072 Highway 49, Gulfport, MS 39503. Make sure you send it to Vilettas attention.

Trophies will be awarded to 1st and 2nd place teams in both the varsity and junior high races. Additionally, individual recognition will be presented to the top 10 runners in the Varsity races and the top 5 runners in the Junior High races. All races will be unlimited.

The majority of the course will follow old dirt roads through the woods. With a Garmin the Varsity races measure 3.1 miles and the Junior High races measure 2.48 miles. We will measure them with a wheel as well.
