The Dr. Conrad Worrill Track & Field Center has been a hot bed of pre-season track races for high school and middle school over the past few years. The one thing that it hasn't held a whole lot of is in-season track meets that is available to the masses. This changes this year with the Illinois Indoor Championships Sponsored By Under Armor. The mission statement is simple "ONE CLASS. ONE GOAL. ONE STAGE. For the first time ever, the best athletes from across the state will come together to compete, regardless of class. No divisions, no limits-just raw talent battling it out on Illinois' premier indoor stage." says Jeff Bryant who is the Meet Manager of the CYUP Misfits Invite sponsored by Hoka. He is also the Meet manager of this High School portion of invite. There will also be an Illinois Indoor Elementary Championships the following day which will be put on by Meet Manager Craig Collins and will provide a main stage for our Junior High Athletes. More information about the Middle School meet will be out soon, but in the meantime here is the High School format!
