Recognition of Excellence
Unit 9 would like to honor Drew McTaggart for his State Qualifying season of Cross County. Drew showed amazing dedication and drive in his first season as a Cross Country runner. He put in countless miles and time to become one of the elite distance runners in our area. We can’t begin to say how proud we are of Drew representing our district and can’t wait to see how he continues to grow. 
Thank you, your hard work is appreciated!
