2002 MEN'S HIGH SCHOOL LEADERS

Compiled by Jack Shepard
(marks received and verified by 6/26/02)

These lists contain the top U.S. high school marks for the 2001-02 season in standard events, fewer in other events. The current outdoor national record (as recognized by T&FN) is listed at the head of each event. All marks without specific wind info were placed on the windy list.

Symbols: +=converted mark; i=indoor mark; (A)=mark made at altitude over 1000m (affected events only); y=mark made at yard distance; ' = after name, non-U.S. citizen. Classes: ****=8th grade; ***=frosh; **=soph; *=junior; ?=unknown; all others are seniors.

We welcome all amendments to these lists. Please send all men's high school information to Jack Shepard, 14551 Southfield Drive, Westminster, CA 92683 (ShepWest@aol.com). Contact Shepard to purchase High School Track, which carries much deeper yearly lists in addition to all-time compilations and record sections.
