Chip timing is used for cross country. I'm not sure about DI, but it will be used for both the NCAA DII and DIII Championships this year. However, just as has been the case for the past several years when tags and push buttons were used for the results, the chip results will be subject to

Not in cross country. The concern of the NCAA Subcommittees is that a runner whose lead foot has the chip on it is recorded ahead of one whose chip is on the trail foot but who finishes in front. But, since the chip results are subject to revision by visual examination that focuses on whose torso

The crucial fact about chip timing for XC (Winning Time or ChampionChip) is that the resolution of the chip is about a tenth of a second. At the recent NCAA DIII Championships, with a little over 200 finishers in each race, 12 finishers were recorded by the chip system out of order in one race

They do it from behind at the Drake Relays, with assistant starters watching in front. In the worst case, if a starter stood (off the track, of course) on a line with the starting line, the sound of the gun would reach the runner in lane 1 about 0.025 seconds before it reached the runner
