Breck County Track & Field / XC

Bittersweet day for BCHS Track & Field! Construction has officially started on the new BCMS and Football/Track facility! The old asphalt track has served us well, allowing us to produce multiple Region Champions, several All-State athletes, and even a 3-time State Champion.

Heartbreaker for Josie Hoskins who missed the KHSAA Class 2A State Meet by just 1 spot. Thankful for these two girls for choosing to run this season. Shout-out to Hope for battling through a hip injury to finish strong! Now, time to heal up and get ready to tear up the track!

STATE BOUND! 🏆 So proud of our Boys XC team for punching their ticket to the KHSAA Class 2A State Meet—the first time since 2010! They ran a lights-out race and executed our plan perfectly. Congrats also to Zeke McCowan for becoming the 4th fastest boy in BCXC history! #BCXC

UNOFFICIALLY! Huge shock as we were predicted 7th from Season Best Times. This is the first time since 2010 that a boys team has qualified!!!!! Zeke McCowan: 17:58 Eli Hoskins: 18:27 Hendrick Kobal: 18:52 William Moorman: 19:16 Tyler Poynter: 19:24

Finding some success here at the end of the season and feeling good as we head into Region week. So excited for our kids! Congratulations to this relays and Will on their new School Records.

Dolphins RB Devon Achane was a Gatorade Player of the Year in track? Just another example of how multi-sport athletes thrive in the NFL. Encouraging kids to participate in other sports only helps them sharpen their skills.

Wrapped up the 2024 Cross Country season. Eli made his debut and Hendrick made his second appearance at the KHSAA Class 2A State Meet. Quick break before we get started with Track & Field.

🏆☘️Clover High School Set to Host Prestigious York County Cross Country Championships After 17-Year Hiatus☘️🏆 In a highly anticipated event, Clover High School is gearing up to host the 36th Annual York County Cross Country Championships on October 19th, marking a triumphant return after a 17-year hosting hiatus. The championship, featuring 11 county teams, promises to be one of the most significant sporting events in the school's recent history, made even more special by the debut of Clover's new cross country course and the introduction of an exciting new tradition. ☘️New Course Debut☘️ Coach Chris Young, in his third year at Clover High, shared his excitement about the new course: "We've been developing our cross country course for the past three years, and this championship marks its grand debut. It's a challenging and beautiful course that we believe will become a favorite among runners and spectators alike." The new course isn't just a point of pride for the school; it's also expected to be a significant revenue generator. "Hosting events on our new course will bring in much-needed funds for our athletics program," Young explained. "This championship is our first big opportunity to showcase what we've built and set the stage for future events." ☘️Introducing the Catawba Cup: A New County Tradition🏆☘️ Adding to the excitement this year is the introduction of the Catawba Cup, a new tradition initiated by Clover High School for the York County Championships. This traveling trophy will be awarded to the team with the best combined score from the boys' and girls' varsity races. "We're incredibly proud to introduce the Catawba Cup to our county," Coach Young announced. "This new tradition represents the pinnacle of cross country achievement in York County. It's not just about individual performance, but about the strength of a school's entire program. We at Clover believe this will foster an even greater sense of competition and camaraderie among our county schools." The introduction of the Catawba Cup is seen as a significant contribution to the county's rich cross country legacy. "By creating this new award, we're hoping to elevate the importance of the county championships and create lasting memories for our athletes," Young added. "We're excited to see which team will claim it first and start their own legacy." Fierce Competition Ahead The championship will see 11 county teams vying for glory: 1. Catawba Ridge High School 2. Clover High School 3. Fort Mill High School 4. Lake Pointe Academy 5. Nation Ford High School 6. Northwestern High School 7. Riverwalk Academy 8. Rock Hill High School 9. South Pointe High School 10. York County Homeschool 11. York Prep "The level of competition this year is unprecedented," remarked Coach Young. "We have five boys' and girls' teams ranked among the top in the state, with Fort Mill holding the number one spot in both divisions. It's a testament to the strength of our county's running programs."

Many of our HS kids ran a SB or PR today at Ryan Snellen Bruin XC Rumble. Huge congratulations to Josie Hoskins on becoming the 5th fastest girl in BCHS history! Hendrick Kobal also cracks back into the 18s. Looking forward to the next 3 weeks for Region!

The elementary and middle school cross country season officially concluded today at the Ryan Snellen Bruin XC Rumble. This race started of my 1st year of coaching, so it's particularly special to me. I was able to collect my 9th Ryan Snellen shirt. Thank you @CHHSXC for hosting.

Those were some great years! Miss those days!

I can’t like this post enough. One of the best in the business giving out great advice. If you haven’t started, start now!

Caroline Lucas on her big day.

Congratulations to Brayden Carman for placing 8th in both the 100m & 200m dash today at the Class 2A State Meet. Brayden had some foot issues after our regional meet but it did not hold him back today. Super excited and happy for him!

Congratulations to Ava Phillips for placing 7th in today’s Class 2A State Meet in discus. She’s another one of seniors that will continue her athletic career alive at EKU next season. Coming off an ACL injury this past summer has put in a ton of work to get back out there.
