An Athletic Letter is given for those who have shown competative excellence throughout the season. There are different ways
of earning a letter as well as a couple of different letter levels.
To earn a Varsity Letter, you need to do one of the following:
1.
Score 14 points in league meets (5 for 1st, 3 for 2nd, 1 for 3rd) in varsity events. League finals also counts (1 for making
league finals, 10 for 1st, 8 for 2nd, 6 for 3rd, 4 for 4th, 2 for 5th, 1 for 6th.
2. Set a school Varsity Record.
3.
Finish in the top 3 at League Finals in the Varsity Division.
If a Junior or Senior scores between 3 and 13 varsity points, they
can earn a JV letter.
To earn a Frosh/Soph Letter, you need to do the following:
1. Score 10 points in league meets,
including league finals, in frosh/soph events. Points are the same as listed above.
2. Set a school Frosh/Soph Record
3.
Finish in the top 3 at league finals in the Frosh/Soph Division.
If a Frosh/Soph athlete has scored varsity points, but not enough
to earn a varsity letter, the points will be converted to frosh/soph points at a rate of 1 varsity point = 2 frosh/soph points.
If
a Frosh/soph scores at least one point, but under 10, they can earn a Junior "G" Letter.
A coach may recommend that an athlete
receive a higher award than what they earned.
Leaving the team (for any reason) or becoming ineligible before season's end reduces
the athlete to a participant.
