Yeah I know. I pointed that out to the guy who sent me the email and he said
We have been fighting for the past couple years to have a reasonable
standard for this event, but have been stymied. I think this year was the
last straw (so to speak). In the future, I think we will see a more
reasonable standard (3.80 or 3.85).
I mentioned it to Bill Roe tonight (president of USATF) and he told me to tell him what the standard should be and he would make sure it happened next year.

I think 3.80 would be better. Just a more logical progression for the females to clear. But ladies answer this...Wouldn't most girls go after 12' 6" then bump it up? That would make the 3.80 work. At 3.85 all of the 12' 6" girls would be out of luck. There are currently 7 girls on Dyestat at 12' 6".

uhh, I see 19, and I know this list is out of date AND wrong (I know of 2 that should be in there, and arent). And this is HS only! Imagine how many freshmens in college have made 12'6"
