If you have an A and B team with 4 different guys for a dmr or 4x4 can you send two teams to the national meet? When I was in high school we were allowed to run 2 4x8s at state if both were under 8:19, an 8:22 from our B squad didn't get it done sadly.
Curious if anyone in the NCAA knows of a rule like this.

No. From the Technical Manual.
"Only one qualified relay team per institution may be declared. That relay team’s declared performance mark will be used for selection and seeding purposes. All other teams on the descending order list from that institution must be scratched."

Hell No
Silly question. You can qualify with 4 runners and then sub in the JV squad..a basketball team enter 2 squads in the tournament? Can a football team? How about a XC team entering 2 squads at regionals. That's the best example because there are no qualifying standards.
