PASS THE BATON

An opportunity to benefit the MC Track Program & give our student athletes the best experience possible.

Mission & Vision

Mission Statement

Our team is filled with student-athletes who are not only talented, but who are driven, coachable, and committed to being part of a team that supports each other in pursuit of something bigger than themselves. We strive to uphold "The Choctaw Standard", which serves as the framework for our pursuit of glorifying God in Athletics, Academics, and Community Involvement.

The 5 Core Principles of the Choctaw Standard are:
  1. Honor God (Colossians 3:17)
  2. Compete Fiercely (2 Timothy 1:7)
  3. Selfless Involvement (Philippians 2:3-4)
  4. Attitude of Gratitude (Psalm 7:17)
  5. Relentless Pursuit of Excellence (Philippians 4:8)

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.”
