Track and Field Scholarships: How do I know where I stand?

How do I get a Track and Field Scholarship?

The first step in getting a Track and Field Scholarship is getting exposure.  There are a number of sites on the internet that provide a great baseline on where you need to be in certain Track and Field events to be in the running for an Athletic Scholarship.  Below are some sites that you can use as a reference, and most college coaches use these to recruit Track and Field Athletes:

Athletic.net   This is a site that is used by coaches to submit meet results.  You can search by individual Track Athlete, Track and Field Teams, or by individual events.  In my opinion, one of the best.

DyeStat  This is another good site, and has a number of "lists" to judge your performance.

Recruiticus Online athletic scholarship database.
