Congratulations to these track athletes who have qualified for the Norfolk Classic meet. To qualify, an athlete needed to have a mark in the top 8 (top 12 in distance and mid-distance) in each event in all of northeast/north-central Nebraska among all class size schools. Because this is a fast-moving, single session meet with only one heat/flight of each event, they will not be competing in all of these events.
