Very interesting "game"!!
But, in the end, it's really up to the athlete's and their coaches (and parents??) what meets they enter, which events they run, and their reasons and goals.

For example, in 2012, with the "season" ending August 31st (for record-breaking purposes!!), such athletes as Mary Cain, Brianna Nerud, and Cayla Hatton ended their seasons after the World Juniors.
What if they'd been able to get into 1 or 2 more meets, and taken shots at the 1500/mile/3000/2 mile (Cain), the SC (Nerud....again!!), and the 5K/10K (Hatton)??
Might the HS record books have been rewritten??
Same goes for a few others (Vaughan, G Williams, H Crouser etc).

So in 2013, we must wait and see what opportunities the great athletes take upon themselves.

Cain won't be running for her team, but will still be eligible to break HS records!!
How many will she go after??
Same with anyone else in such a position....meaning good enough to alter the record book!!
