An observation... I like JDL but I thought the reason MEAC Championships were held in the DC area was because of the banked track. Also thought the BS ran at Liberty for the same reason. The last time I attended JDL, there was no banked track. NCAA Championships are held on banked tracks. Times on flat tracks are subject to NCAA conversion ( example given 4:03 mile on flat track is 3:59.94 on banked) . JDL said it costs $500K to $1Million to more to build banked track...

MEAC championship wasn’t on a banked track

Maybe BS is trying to save money due to CoVID shortfalls 🤷🏾‍♂️

Agreed. I was looking forward to running indoor on a banked track at Liberty or Va. Tech as well.
