UPDATED STATE TRACK MEET SCHEDULE
05-02-25
Based on the forecast for this afternoon and this evening, we feel it is in the best interest of participating schools and spectators to reschedule the 2A & 5A running session for tomorrow morning. We will complete as many field events as possible today and make adjustments as needed for field events not completed tomorrow morning. The 2A & 5A running session will begin at 10:10am, with relay exchanges from 8:00-8:45am. The 1A & 6A field event and running schedule as of now will not be changed (this includes the 3200m run beginning @ 9:00 am).
Important Information for Participating Schools:
- PACKET PICK-UP: Packet pick-up and Will Call will close at 2:00pm today but will be open tomorrow morning beginning at 6:45am at Gate 28 of DKR.
- CREDENTIALS: Friday’s coaches’ credentials will be valid for entry on Saturday until 3:30pm.
- WARM-UP: DKR will be open on Saturday morning at 7:00am for general warm-up.
- As a reminder, only credentialed coaches and athletes will be able to access DKR.
- CLASS 2A & 5A RELAY EXCHANGES:
- 2A – 8:00am-8:20am (Boys & Girls)

- PARKING: Parking for 2A & 5A will be in Lot 39, just north of Lot 37, using Friday’s parking passes. Parking for 1A & 6A teams will not change.
- There are multiple events happening on Saturday, so coaches need to allow for extra travel time to account for traffic and parking pressure in the area.

Track & Field State Meet - Weather Watch
As we finalize preparations for the 2025 UIL State Track Meet, we want to share a few important last-minute reminders to help you plan for the weekend in Austin.
Weather Concerns & Schedule Flexibility
The forecast currently shows a high chance of thunderstorms on Friday, with increasing likelihood throughout the day. This particularly affects 2A and 5A schools, so we strongly encourage you to prepare for potential delays or schedule changes.
While we plan to stick to our original schedule (both morning and afternoon sessions), we have started developing contingency plans in case of a significant disruption in our planned activities. In the event of major disruptions on Friday, some events may be rescheduled to Saturday. For example, if we get our field events in on Friday morning and cannot get our running program in it might be necessary to carry the schedule over to Saturday morning. Please review your travel and lodging plans now to ensure you're ready for this possibility.
We will use the sportsYou app for all schedule updates and communication during the weekend. Make sure all coaches and administrators supporting you are signed up and actively monitoring the app.
All coaches please remember that there are multiple events on Saturday and heavy construction in the area. Please ensure that you account for this when finalizing your arrangements and plans on Saturday. Arrive Early!
Friday Schedule Change – Wheelchair Events
Due to the potential for inclement weather, the schedule for the wheelchair events on Friday have been adjusted:
- Warmups for the wheelchair track events will be from 8:00-8:30 am.
- 100m events: Now begin at 10:00 AM (after the 3200m events for 2A & 5A)
- 400m event: Now begins at 11:00 AM
- Shot Put: No change – still scheduled for 12:30 PM (boys) and 2:30 PM (girls)
While much of the above relates to Friday, we would ask that all coaches prepare accordingly and thank you for your flexibility as we work to provide the best experience for your athletes.
