Team New Balance athletes Heather MacLean, Elle Purrier St. Pierre, Sydney McLaughlin and high school phenom Roisin Willis locked in overdrive for an assault on a record-breaking performance in the Distance Medley Relay.

Congratulations to the Coach of the Year Award Recipients. They were all acknowleged at the MSTCA Clinic this past weekend.

I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself and offer some important information about the upcoming outdoor track and field season. Please read this brief, but essential message carefully:

President Rowbotham would like to address the membership with the following message:

After a two year hiatus the MSTCA is proud to announce the return of the New England Track & Field Clinic.

The past weekend the MSTCA inducted five individual athletes and a relay team into the MSTCA Athlete Hall of fame. Listed below are a few paragraphs on each athlete and their accomplishments. A great job by Bob L'Homme and Fred Doyle for putting it all togehter.

There might be a few adjustments to our MSTCA Schedule, but here is a quick look ahead to the Spring of 2022.

Distance Medley Relay April 15, 2022

The Boston Holiday Challenge will take center stage at Reggie Lewis Center on December 27. The meet will host teams from New York, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Connecticut, and Massachusetts.

Just a reminder to all Indoor Coaches that the WinterFest entries will close at 11:59pm on Tuesday. No late entries are allowed.

We would like to thank the athletes and coaches who attended the 16th annual Do-It Clinic yesterday. We had an inspirational opening to the day with the Keynote Speaker, Rich Kennedy followed by some great instruction by all of our esteemed and legendary clinicians.

HOKA cushion and support doesn’t need to come at the expense of a lightweight, snappy ride. We’ve long been known for its extraordinary weight-to-cushion ratio, but the Rincon 3 takes that to another level: not only does this shoe have unique HOKA cushion and ride characteristics, but it’s one of the lightest shoes we’ve ever made.

We are excited to once again host the MSTCA Learn By Doing Clinic tomorrow at the Reggie Lewis Athletic Center. Here are some instructions that will hopefully make the clinic run smoothly.

The "Do It" Clinic is held annually in early December, offering participants helpful training tips and advice on a variety of Track & Field events, including the shot put, high jump, triple jump, hurdles, short sprints, long sprints, middle distance and distance events.

As we approach what we hope to be a full and relatively-normal season of indoor track and field, I wanted to introduce both myself and some of the changes to expect this season.

Save the dates for all the MSTCA Indoor action! The meet formats will be forthcoming.

All this considered, the MSTCA (in conjunction with Marathon Sports), is assisting Mass General Hospital this year with their annual Caring for a Cure Race (which will take place at the Marshfield Fairgrounds). We hope you will consider walking or running the race, or at least helping us promote it for a great cause. Keep in mind this event is for both WALKERS & RUNNERS!

What an incredible weekend of racing in Massachusetts! It has been two years since the MSTCA has held the McIntyre Twilight Meet and this year certainly did NOT disappoint!

It wouldn’t be Fall without an MSTCA Cross Country meet on a 60 degree October day. Despite the meets we offered last fall, I think we can all agree that there’s nothing like a fully operational XC season in Massachusetts.

The Bay State Invitational will be front and center this weekend at the Wrentham Developmental Center. Here is a list of the Race assignments and Box numbers.

The Annual MSTCA Banquet will be held on Sunday September 12, 2021 at The Lantana, Randolph. The banquet will honor MSTCA coaches, athletes, and Hall of Fame Inductees. The ceremony will start at 1PM.

The risk of running-related injuries may be associated with longer participation in the sport of running, and children may be uniquely vulnerable to injuries.

Here is the Performance list and general information for Saturdays Meet.

It was a rain soaked weekend, but that didn't stop all four Divisional Relays from taking place this memorial day weekend.

The MSTCA is happy to announce it will offer a total ten $500 scholarships to the Class of 2021.

2021 promised us a better year, but on Tuesday March 23, 2021, Tim and Lori Cimeno received news that is drastically changing their lives. For Lori, a dizzy morning at work quickly accelerated to trip to Newton-Wellesley Hospital and a shocking Leukemia diagnosis.

New Membership Guidelines for 2020-21 Announced!

The MSTCA & BSR Teams are looking for volunteers to help archive all the Outdoor All State Meet Champions. We will then be able to filter all the data like the current Cross-Country list on the new MSTCA site.
