Greetings Coaches, Athletes, and XC/Track and Field Fans,

The flag in the air and we're poised and ready for the crack of the starter's pistol! The Fall 2026 Cross Country season is upon us. We hope everyone had an opportunity to recharge this summer and that you and your athletes are ready for another great fall.

Before we get started, we want to thank our Cross Country sponsors, The Run House and ASICS, for their continued support of the MSTCA, our meets and the student-athletes we serve. Partnerships like these help us continue to provide quality competitive opportunities throughout the season.

We have shared several important MSTCA updates in our membership email newsletter including our fall meet schedule, scholarship recipients, membership renewal, important NFHS Cross Country safety information and a couple of opportunities where we could use the help of the Massachusetts coaching community. If you are not a member, please consider joining us to be sure you receive the latest updates from the MSTCA!

As always, thank you for everything you do for your athletes and our sport.

We look forward to seeing you on the course this fall!

Yours in sport,
Michael Glennon, Brookline
MSTCA President
