This is a list of top performances I can find. Most are taken from the NJ All-time top 50 list. I want to recognize those athletes that don't have the record but had outstanding performances. If I have missed someone or you can add to this elite list, email me at jschlentz@aol.com.

| For relays, one relay team from a school per year, but the same four people can not be used more than once, even in consecutive years. I can't find much before 2000 so I'm trying to keep the times elite so very few past performances will be missed. | ||||
