Error is corrected in I indoor standards

An error was discovered recently in qualifying standards for Division I men's indoor track that are listed in the 1997 NCAA Men's and Women's Track and Field/Cross Country Rules and in the 1997 NCAA Men's and Women's Indoor Track Championships handbook.

In the men's distance medley relay (yards), the automatic standard for a 200-meter track is 9:41.00; the standard for a track more than 200 meters (oversized) is 9:38.75. The standards are incorrectly listed as 9:40.00 and 9:37.75, respectively, in the rules book and championships handbook.
