A special congratulations to Madison Marshall for her 3rd-place finish in the state, along with all of our runners who earned medals and set personal records!

From early practices and tough workouts to big races and unforgettable finishes, these athletes have learned that success doesn’t come easy. It takes grit, determination, teamwork, and the willingness to push through when things get tough.
We started this season as a team, but we finished as a family! Watching these kids grow as runners and as individuals has been the best part of it all.
To our runners: Be proud of what you accomplished! You represented Jones County with heart, class, and determination. To our parents and supporters, thank you for cheering us on every step of the way!
What a ride it has been! We hate to see this season come to an end, but we can’t wait to see what the future holds for these athletes!
