🏃‍♂️ What a season for the McCrossan Wranglers! 🏃‍♂️

The 2026 track season was filled with growth, hard work, and history-making moments. For the first time that we know of, a McCrossan relay team qualified for the state track meet, and we also had an athlete compete at state in the 3200-meter run!

This season, our athletes competed in the 300 hurdles and long jump for the first time in program history, and all seven team members achieved new personal bests. Even more importantly, they learned what it means to support one another, work together, and celebrate each other's successes.

Congratulations, Wranglers! We are proud of everything you accomplished on and off the track. 👏💚
