Mission & Vision
Mission Statement
Our focus and goal is to use the gifts and talents that God has graciously given to us, and give our best effort each week to give those gifts back to him. If we consistently do this with an attitude of gratitude, we fulfill our most important calling by worshiping God with our performance.
5 Pillars of our Program - How we will meet our goals:- Pursue excellence in every effort, whether practice, competition, or classroom (phil. 4:8)
- Honor God in all we say and do (Col. 3:23, Matthew 25: 14-30)
- Be selfless in our involvement in our local community, campus community, and local churches (Romans 12:1)
- Be team – oriented by valuing our teammates and their success as much as we value our own. (Phil. 2: 1-4)
- Always have a positive attitude, since we know it affects everyone around us. (1 Cor. 9:19)
Our student-athletes are dedicated to excelling both academically and on the track. The 'Pass the Baton' student-athlete fund will enable us to provide these deserving athletes with the resources they need to achieve success. My vision for this program is to compete at the highest level with the top Track and XC programs in Division 2, and this fund is a crucial step toward realizing that goal!”

ATHLETE TESTIMONIAL
“If I could sum up the Mississippi College Track and Field/Cross Country program in one word, it would be family. Ever since I stepped foot on campus, this has been a place of acceptance. They’ve celebrated with me in good times and encouraged me in the difficult times, all the while challenging me to pursue excellence athletically and academically. Even more, I’ve had the joy of running alongside teammates who model Christ in the way they love each other and their communities. On behalf of the MCTFXC family, we are deeply grateful for the support we receive. We thank you for teaming up with us as we continue to build our program and pursue excellence in what we do.”
