Meet Information
Sanger Metric Classic
Friday, April 22, 2022
Dodson Field (Washington Academic Middle School)
1218 Hoag Ave. Sanger CA 93657 (Not a mailing address)
Field at 3:45, track at 4 pm
Ten Lane Track, Fully Auto Timing, Scoreboard Results, Full Concession
Three divisions will be offered (Varsity Girls, Frosh/Soph Boys, Varsity Boys). Invitations will be extended to the top: Ten (10) in lane events +3 alternates; Fourteen (16) in field events; no more than Thirty (30) in distance races. Each team will be allowed 3 entries per event (except in the 1600, 3200, and pole vault, which will receive 4). All marks must be wind legal efforts from the 2020 season.
From 1958 - 1977, the meet now known as The Metric was called the Sanger Invitational, but no matter the name, it continues to be one of the highest quality track and field experiences for participants. Sanger High School and Dave Dodson made this one of, if not, the first high school invitational in California to use metric race distances. Initially, this was only done for the 72 and 76 Olympic years, but has been a standard of the meet since 76. As the meet stands today, it continues to be the premiere late season invitational of the Central Section. If an athlete and/or team places at the Sanger Metric, they are one to watch at the Masters Meet and a potential state qualifier. Just getting into the meet should validate for a coach and athlete that their season up to this point has been successful. Again, we are excited to host and welcome you to another installment of The Metric.
