This Means More
 
In our fifth year, this program continues to be one of the best programs in the state.  While acclimating to some new Covid realities, it was nice to have a “more” normal season.  As usual, many of our best runners started in the Spring building their mileage as we head to summer.  We had a record number of runners attain Summer Elite status by running over 200 miles in the summer.   Then, we closed the summer down with a successful JRCXC Summer Camp.  Once we hit August, we had a number of runners ready to defend our State Titles and achieve some new records themselves.

We started the season with nine runners, who had achieved Summer Elite status, competing at Athens Running Company Season Opener.  Both Jordyn and Jerry were able to get on the podium stand at this very well challenged meet.  The next week, we headed to the Lanier Stampede with all of our summer runners.  Even with the limited team, the boys pulled out a victory behind the a breakout run by Jerry, who took home the individual victory.  The next week, with a larger, but not complete roster, we won both the girls and the boys team wins at WarEagle while Jerry took home his second victory in a row.  On Labor Day weekend, we took a full roster to Cartersville to attend the Run at the Rock.  Both teams finished second, but Jerry came home with a new school record.  Two weekends later, we attended Warpath where the boys brought home 2nd place in the very large field.  The final regular season race of the year, the boys prevail yet again at Wesleyan Invitational.  A few weeks later, we would head down to Cochran, GA to compete in the State Championships.  On this day, Taylor Road MS would not be denied as your Jr. Cougars would go on to win 3 out of the 4 races on our way to winning our Team Grand Champion title for the third straight year.  22 out of our 34 runners would finish in the Top 25 in their race, giving them the privilege of going up onto the podium to collect their State Medal.   This is an extraordinary measure of individual success, which is a testament to their hard work and dedication to the sport.
​
The level of success that this program has achieved in five years has been nothing short of outstanding.  We will graduate an impressive group of young runners, but still have a core of exceptional runners for years to come.  If this next group of runners are just as dedicated and determined to be successful as their predecessors, great achievement will be the natural outcome.  We will have lofty goals in 2022, but also have the core and the culture to make it happen.  2022 is going to be our year.
