MHSAA Record Book
If you have information you believe should be included in these records (additions, deletions or corrections), it may be submitted one of three ways:
- Submitted by a MHSAA member school athletic administrator on official office letterhead, or by using the National Federation Record Application (Note: The Federation form is a fillable Word document and may be emailed to the address below. You may also attach supporting documentation to the email).
- Submitted by a media member on official office letterhead, enclosing appropriate documentation.
- Submitted by a member of the public with appropriate documentation, including the names and phone numbers of contact people at the school involved. The school will then be contacted to verify the information. Due to the high number of submission received, no action will be taken on undocumented information.

MHSAA Finals Top 5K Finishes
NOTE: The MHSAA Finals distance of five kilometers (3.1 miles) became the standard in 1980. All Lower Peninsula Finals since 1996 have been run at Michigan International Speedway. All times are rounded to nearest tenth of a second, as is the current Finals procedure. The Upper Peninsula Finals for Classes C and D were unified a majority of seasons from 1980-99, and so records from the eight Finals when they were not unified are included in the "Class C-D" category below.
