Thank you for visiting our website.  Ellis Middle School Cross Country is a competitive club of 30 runners who participate in meets organized by the Mid State Cross Country Association (MSCCA). 

Attention 6th Grade Runners...

If you are interested in training early for XC, you might consider the Country Music Marathon.  This marathon is 26.2 miles long.  Anyone in grades K-6 can participate by running the first 25.2 miles individually or with a group and then coming together on April 24, 2009 to run the final mile and cross the finish line on LP Field.  For more information and to register, visit the link below.  Happy running!

Thanks to all of the runners and parents who participated in the MSCCA Middle School Regional Championships.  We appreciate you fulfilling your commitment to the EMS Cross Country Club, especially considering it was during our fall break.  You showed great sportsmanship and integrity and we all had a lot of fun!

Our girls team placed 14th overall, with a total of 29 teams running.  Our boys team placed 14th overall with a total of 27 teams running.  Congratulations to Elise Taylor for being the 14th individual qualifier for the state championships in Knoxville next weekend and for receiving a medal for a 23rd place finish overall.  We are very proud of all of you for your hard work and dedication!  We hope to see you at open practice in the spring.
