Our Cross Country athletes are taking in the STATE experience. On the way to Columbia, the team stopped at Central Dairy in Jefferson City for some delicious ice cream. Next, they headed to Gans Creek, where they will race in the morning, for a pre-meet workout before taking a few photos and picking out t-shirts. They are now shopping at the mall and will enjoy a meal together before calling it a night. Good luck tomorrow everyone! We are so proud of you all! #MCPirates

The Macks Creek Pirates are STATEBOUND! Our team ran a smart race, with everyone pushing themselves to secure crucial places to keep the season alive! Carter Ferrell and Karysn Jensen led the team finishing 4th and 18th respectively. Both young men punched their tickets to STATE with coveted top 30 All District finishes while garnering points to help the entire team advance. Jason Bryant, Sebastian Sanchez, and Mason Breshears passed key opponents with down to the wire sprints to build the team score to a fourth place finish overall! Parker Christian and Fisher Wiethop were close on their heels making sure their teammates didn't let up. It was an exciting race with everyone giving their all. Our entire team will race again at the MSHSAA Class 1 State Championships at MU’s Gans Creek Course in Columbia next Saturday. Congratulations team! #MCPirates

Congratulations to senior Bailey Allan who ran the final meet of her Cross Country career this morning in El Dorado Springs. Bailey is the daughter of Chris and Erica Allan. She has participated in cross-country for 4 years, cheer for 3, track for 2, choir for 2, National Honor Society for 2, and Pep Club for 1. After high school, Bailey plans on becoming an RN, and then becoming a CRNA. Her favorite high school memory was the times spent with her friends. Her favorite Cross Country memory was her first sub-30, last year at the Humansville Meet. She will never forget her track coach Becky saying, “Life is hard, get a helmet.” Some advice Bailey has for younger athletes is, “ Cross Country is a mentally challenging sport; if you keep up a good attitude and try to enjoy what you are doing, you can do great things.” Her favorite quote is, “Doubting yourself is normal; letting it stop you is a choice.” -Mel Robbins Thank you Bailey for your hard work, dedication and perseverance as a 4 - year Varsity XC runner. You have been a great leader, teammate and made us all proud! We will miss you and wish you the very best! #MCPirates
