 
Florida State University is proud to be the host of the 2008 NCAA® East Regional Track and Field Championships, May 30-31. The Seminoles welcome student-athletes, coaches and fans to Mike Long Track where for two days some of the best athletes in the country will be competing for the right to advance to the 2008 NCAA® Championships in Des Moines, Iowa, June 11-14. Last year, Florida State's own Walter Dix set the NCAA® record in the 200m dash at the East Regional and many of the same performances can be expected this weekend.
The top five finishers in each individual event and the top three finishers in the 4x100m and 4x400m relays will automatically qualify for the NCAA® Championships. Hosting this spectacular event for the first time, Florida State Athletics is excited to play host to several potential Olympians from across the world as this first class event unfolds in its backyard. We hope you enjoy your trip to Florida State University and the Tallahassee Big Bend area. |
