Welcome to the 7th annual Tomahawk Track & Field Classic.
Coaches: Your team entry will be confirmed based on meet limitations.
Our philosophy is to make this meet a team-focused event that is athlete friendly.
Facility
Marysville-Pilchuck’s track and field event facilities are not great. Honestly, our track is not in good shape. We have done the best we can with limited financial support. The grandstand is covered. It is requested that ¼ inch spikes maximum be used. Runways for jumps are in good condition. High jump can be slick if wet, longer spikes will be allowed. The shot and discus events are thrown inside the stadium area. The javelin will be thrown from a grass runway. All events, except javelin, can be seen from the grandstands.
