Note From Meet Director: 14th Annual Taylorsville Invitational
April 19th 2014
It is with great pleasure that Taylorsville High School invites you to the 14th Annual Taylorsville Invitational. We are continuing to improve the meet in order to provide the best possible experience for athletes and spectators. A big part of the experience at Taylorsville is the chance for your athletes to run on a Mondo track surface. This is a wonderful opportunity for your athletes to get experience on the surface that they will run on at the BYU Invitational and the State Championships. This is also a good opportunity for your athletes to experience championship caliber competition as we have had multiple state records broken in the past few years. Please read all information carefully and let us know ASAP if you have questions, complaints, suggestions, etc., so problems can be corrected beforehand.
