High School Records are those ratified by the T&FN Records Committee (p after mark = ratification is pending).
We consider the season to go through August 31 of an athlete’s senior year, but we have appended a section noting the best marks made in HS-only competition. Signing a pro contract makes an athlete ineligible for HS consideration. i = mark made indoors; (A) = altitude over 1000m (in affected events only).
