training personnel found giving or selling his/her credential to another person is subject to
sanctions by the NCAA Division III Men’s and Women’s Track and Field Committee.
4. Box passes will be distributed at the protest table the day of the event. One coach per
institution will receive a color-coded sticker to be placed visibly on the credential. If you do not
present a pass, you will not be allowed access.
5. Extra coaches’ credentials may be purchased at packet pick-up for $20 (cost of an adult full
session pass).
DRUG TESTING
NCAA championships committees, following a recommendation from the NCAA drug-testing
subcommittee, have discontinued the practice of announcing whether drug testing will be
conducted at NCAA championship events.
Although knowing prior to competition whether NCAA drug testing was to occur had value for
reasons of convenience, it left open the possibility that student-athletes might be tempted to use
banned substances if they knew that NCAA testing was not being conducted at the site of
competition.
Therefore, all coaches and student-athletes should presume that NCAA drug testing will occur at this
championships event. Please inform your student-athletes that in the event they are notified of
their selection for drug testing, the student-athlete must inform an official representative of your
institution (e.g., coach, athletic trainer) before proceeding to the drug-testing site. Student-athletes
will be reminded by the courier to contact their team representative.
If drug testing were to occur, the following format would be followed:
# Tested:
Division III – 96
Test Plan: Winner and random participant from individual events; winning team and one random
from relay after student-athlete’s last event of that day.

MEDICAL DISQUALIFICATION
As the event sponsor, the NCAA has valid authority to ensure that all student-athletes are physically
fit to participate in its championships and that a student-athlete’s participation will not expose other
participants to a significantly enhanced risk of harm. The student-athlete’s team physician can
determine whether an individual with an injury, an illness or other medical condition (e.g., skin
infection, pregnancy) should continue to participate or be disqualified. In the absence of a team
physician, the NCAA tournament physician, as designated by the host school, has the
unchallengeable authority to examine the student-athlete and make a decision of continued
participation or medical disqualification. If, in the opinion of the tournament physician, continued
participation by the injured student-athlete may expose others to a significantly enhanced risk of
20
harm, the tournament physician has the final decision regarding participation by the studentathlete. The chair of the governing sports committee (or a designated representative) should be
responsible for administrative enforcement of the medical judgment, if it involves disqualification.
Please refer all medical and athletic training related questions to the medical director listed below.
Good luck during the championships.

TRAVEL & ACCOMMODATIONS
TRANSPORTATION
Any participating institution located within 500 miles of the competition site must drive. Please note
mileage is calculated using the shortest route through the NCAA’s Travel Expense System (TES)
23
(https://web1.ncaa.org/TES/exec/login?js=true. Click on Mileage Calculator underneath the Login
area). All transportation needs will be the responsibility of the participating team.
Any institution over 500 miles is permitted to fly and all airline reservations must be made through
Short’s Travel Management (866/655-9215). The participating institution shall be completely
responsible for making its own travel reservations. Institutions can also enter travel manifest and
other travel party information through the travel portal at www.shortstravel.com/ncaachamps.
If an institution is eligible to use air transportation to the site of the championship, and there is a
major airport located within 150 miles of the championship site, then the participating institution is
required to fly into/out of that airport and utilize ground transportation to and from the site of
competition. This also applies if the originating airport isolated within 150 miles of the participating
institution’s campus.
This policy only applies when airfare is less expensive from the more distant airport. In addition, the
NCAA travel staff will have discretion to increase the hub rule mileage if necessary and reasonable.
When teams competing in individual-team sports are eligible to fly to the competition site, the
institutions will be allowed to book travel before the official selection announcement. However,
should you pre-book and any of your travelers not qualify for reimbursement, your institution will
be billed for the cost of those tickets after the championship is completed. If an institution is eligible
to use air transportation, they may choose to drive to the site of competition due to difficulties in
arranging air travel. Should this occur, the institution will be reimbursed the lesser of what airfare
would have cost, or the eligible ground transportation. For individual-team sports, eligible ground
transportation is mileage per person.
The Columbus (CMH) airport is the most convenient airport located 28 miles away from campus.
Some of the other airports in the area are:
•
Toledo Express Airport (TOL)
•
Cleveland Hopkins International Airport (CLE)
•
James M. Cox Dayton International Airport (DAY)
•
Akron-Canton Regional Airport (CAK)
LODGING
Please see Appendix G for on- and off-campus lodging.
DINING
Please see Appendix H for dining options.
UNIFORMS
BIBS
Competition bibs for each participating student-athlete will be included in each team’s packet along
with eight (8) safety pins per competitor. These bibs must be worn on the front and the back of the
24
uniform jersey during competition. In the pole vault, the bibs should be worn on the back only. In
the high jump, the bib should be worn on the front only. Designated hip numbers will be given to
each track event athlete at the clerking area. For relays, all runners will receive numbers. Numbers
shall be placed on the uniform shorts/briefs (not on the skin) and on the chest.
HIP NUMBERS
Hip numbers will be provided for all races. For student-athletes competing in races not finishing in
lanes (400m and up), three numbers will be given to each student-athlete. The third number should
be on the left chest. For relays, all runners will receive numbers.
UNIFORMS
When engaged in competition, each competitor must wear an official team uniform with
components governed by these rules or be subject to disqualification. Wearing any part of the
official team competition uniform illegally while in the area of competition shall lead to a warning by
the nearest official. A repeated violation may result in disciplinary action. A report of uncorrected
violations shall be made to the referee and offending competitor’s coach.
A uniform consists of two school-issued components – shorts or briefs, and a top. A one-piece body
suit is acceptable as a combination of the two components. Any outer garment that is school-issued
becomes the official uniform when worn.
The uniform must be of a material and design deemed to not be objectionable or offensive by the
athletics department of the issuing institution.
The uniform top must, by design and size, cover the full length of the torso, meeting or hanging
below the waistband of the bottoms, while the competitor is standing, and allow for the
competitors’ numbers to be placed above the waist, front and back.
Uniform tops must be worn so to not obscure hip numbers. Additional visible clothing is an
undergarment. It must be worn under the uniform and be of a solid color. The use of, or wearing of,
artificial noisemakers by competitors is prohibited.
Individual or team uniform, logo, number and shoe rules shall be enforced through inspection by the
clerk or the head field event official at initial event check-in. Violators shall be warned, given the
chance to correct the violation and reported to the referee. A report of uncorrected violations shall
be made to the referee and offending competitor’s coach.
All relay team members must wear uniforms clearly indicating, through color, logo and combination
of all worn outer garments, that members are from the same team.
Visible undergarments on the top worn by team members must be of an identical solid color. Visible
undergarments on the bottom must be of an identical solid color.
25
LOGO POLICY
An institution’s official uniform and all other items of apparel (e.g., team jersey, socks) that are worn
by student-athletes in competition may bear a single manufacturer’s or distributor’s normal
trademark, not to exceed 2¼ square inches, including any additional material (e.g. patch
surrounding the normal trademark or logo). The logo or trademark must be contained within a foursided geometrical figure (i.e., rectangle, square, parallelogram).
In addition, an institution’s official uniform cannot bear a design element similar to the
manufacturer’s that is in addition to another logo or that is contrary to the size restriction.
A student-athlete representing an institution in intercollegiate competition is limited to wearing
apparel items that include only the logo of an apparel manufacturer or distributor. This restriction
shall not include logos that identify the student-athlete’s institution or conference.
These restrictions apply to all apparel worn by student-athletes during the conduct of competition,
including pre-meet or post-meet activities.
*IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS PLEASE REFERENCE: [Bylaw 12.5.3 in the NCAA
Division III Manual and Rule 4-3 in 2013 and 2014 NCAA Cross Country/Track and Field Rules. Below
