A. Sport Motions<br />

Sport Motion #1: I move that we publish a weekly ranking system for Indoor and Outdoor Track and<br />

Field. Scoring will utilize the TFRRS.org website <strong>NAIA</strong> Performance List and will include all marks<br />

earned from that season (marks performed during indoor season cannot be used outdoor and viseversa).<br />

The scoring will also be consistant with <strong>NAIA</strong> national championship scoring method using the<br />

top 8 marks in each event to score (1st-10 points, 2nd-8 points, 3 rd -6 points, 4 th -5 points, 5 th -4 points, 6 th -<br />

3 points, 7 th -2 points, 8 th -1 point). Preseason ranking will utilize the top 8 performances from the<br />

previous year except marks by seniors and students at institutions no longer in the <strong>NAIA</strong>. The team<br />

scoring will be solely calculations with no need for voting or weighing "Strengths of Meets". I would<br />

prefer that this ranking system be administered by the <strong>NAIA</strong> national office, but if they are unable to do<br />

so, I believe a small committee of coaches would have no problem doing this on a weekly basis. (Shawn<br />

Venable, Bacone)<br />

RATIONALE – Every other sport in the <strong>NAIA</strong> has a national ranking publish weekly and track and field<br />

is the easiest sport to rank. Weekly rating can be used as a recuiting tool and bragging rights for teams<br />

and conferences.<br />
