Performance Lists & Rosters by School have been updated for the 2026 KHSAA State Track & Field Championships presented by UK HealthCare! The State Championship Meets will be held May 21-23 at the University of Kentucky Track & Field Complex. Coaches need to double-check the performance list and the Roster by School for accuracy.

Each school should review its student-athletes and let us know immediately of any necessary changes (e.g., misspelled names, incorrect grades, etc.) by emailing us at trresults@khsaa.org. It is important that you send corrections to this email address to ensure all parties are aware of the changes.

The deadline for these changes is Monday, May 18th at 12:00 PM ET. 

As a reminder to coaches, each region automatically qualifies the first- and second-place finishers in each event (a total of 14 automatic qualifiers if at least 2 entered). The next 10 best performances (plus any unbreakable ties) in each event, per class, from the state-at-large shall qualify for the state meet. It is very possible to have a situation in which the performances at a regional meet among the two automatic advancers are lower than those of someone who did not finish first or second in his/her region and who is not in the top 10 marks in a specific event. The two automatics from each region are protected by finish position, regardless of time or mark.

Final performance lists, lane assignments, starting heights (including long- and triple-jump boards), and competitor numbers will be distributed as soon as they are available. Coaches should plan to attend the virtual conference call on Monday, May 18th, at 10:30 AM ET if they have any athletes who qualify. Details about joining the conference call were previously distributed to member schools.
