Because of forecast snow in North Jersey and New York Tuesday evening, the 88th annual Eastern States Championships have been rescheduled for Wednesday.
The meet was originally scheduled to begin at 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday at the 168th Street Armory. No start time has been announced for the rescheduled meet on Wednesday.
A winter weather advisory has been scheduled for 6 p.m. Monday through 1 p.m. Tuesday for New York City and portions of North Jerey, according to the National Weather Service.
There is an Easterns web site here: http://www.jacobbrown.com/Easterns/easterns.htm … but parts of it (including my own all-time performance lists) haven’t been updated in a decade so I can’t vouch for anything on there.
