Classifications

When the dust settled at French Field, the distance fields heading to the 2026 WIAA State Championships were set. Runners advanced by finishing in the top six of their final or by hitting the 2026 State Minimum Standard — the marks that, in the deepest 4A races, sent extra entrants on top of the top six. Below: every 800m, 1600m, and 3200m qualifier, by event. Click any name to find their race photos.
