The indoor track teams at Western Albemarle High School are craving a big meet. Their last big meet was the first weekend of February at Virginia Tech. They missed their district meet after it was cancelled for transportation issues in other counties,and now their conference meet, scheduled to be this Thursday at Liberty University, faces potential cancellation due to the predicted snow in the area.

In addition, the only day that this meet could be rescheduled to is Sunday, which Liberty will most likely not allow. Without the district and conference meets, the top six ranked athletes in each event will automatically move onto regionals. This is a problem for people who have not yet had a meet to show their full potential in certain events or had a chance to qualify for regionals.
