(responsable?) athlétisme sur piste, compétition interscolaire

"varsity" dans un contexte sportif signifie normalement les compétitions entre écoles.
"track" - les disciplines d'athlétisme qui se tiennent sur piste

neutral RHELLER : in the U.S. varsity signifies a player's level - all teams have games (compétitions); it depends: sometimes both teams will go out for a game because the other school also has varsity and junior varsity

but only the varsity team represents the school/college in outside comps, no?
