Montana State A Highschool Track and Field 300m Hurdle Final

I have lane 8, and I ran a time of a 41.34, I placed 4th but was later disqualified for "supposedly" having my trail leg outside of my lane on hurdle 5. They announced me as 4th place but then later called my coaches to the finish line to announce my disqualification. We tried to appeal, but the judges wouldnt look at the footage..

personally i think the kid in lane 9 should have been disqualified for kicking the 2nd hurdle in my lane forcing me to run around it... but o well

well if you would care to notice, the kid in lane 9 fell, so him getting dq'd is kind of irrelevant. I was at that meet, and I do think you got a raw deal though. the officials were not great and the hurdles were ancient, one coach commented that hitting one was like hitting a tombstone. I watched every hurdle race, and there were only 2 heats where no one fell

@powderpig55 well iw as just saying i got kinda screwed over in that race a few times... pause it when i go over hurdle 5 and see if i was outside hte lane and under the hurdle.. i wasnt... andi f you do notice no foul flags went up at all during the race... so the call was made after the race...

I agree you got screwed, I met you and your parents that day, that was my son that crashed. To tell you the truth, I wasn't real impressed with the whole way the meet was ran. The year before in Bozeman was ran much better, and they weren't so anal about stuff either! Good luck in the future. :-)

i agree, with powderpig55. those hurdles were terrible, as well as the officials. also, the person from whitefish in lane 9 was my brother!
