Coaches Invitational Moves To New Foxboro High School Campus

Over 140 Athletes reported to the Reggie Lewis Track for the 25th annual MSTCA Girls Pentathlon.

In the wake of the Coronavirus outbreak and the uncertainty going forward, the MSTCA has made the decision to postpone the Annual Awards Banquet (originally on June 14th at the Lantana) to September 20th (still a potential & tentative date).

We are pleased to announce the result of the MSTCA membership voting for the 2019-2020 Indoor Track and Field Athletes of the Year:

The Robert McIntyre Scholarship Committee will award $100 Summer Camperships for the Summer of 2020.

Rest assured coaches, in the wake of the recent developments from the MIAA Board of Directors Meeting, we have multiple contingency plans in place for whatever the ultimate outcome of this season will be.

It is with heavy heart we contact our members today. As we are sure most of you have already heard, Governor Baker, with the assistance of the Mass DOE, Mass Teacher's Association, the Mass Association of School Superintendents, and many other relative educational boards, made the decision to stick with Remote Learning throughout the remainder of the 2019-2020 school year.

The MSTCA is proud to announce the 18 student-athletes selected as recipients of the 2019/20 McIntyre/Polizzotto Scholarships.

MF Athletic is sponsoring a FREE “Virtual Throws Conference” on YouTube every Tuesday, 5:00 PM EST! It is hosted by Brandon Gruver of Williams College. Feel free to check it out or share with your athletes!

I am so blessed. I have been given a perspective of appreciation that I never, ever thought I would be afforded. I don’t feel guilty. I don’t feel sorry. I don’t feel angry. I don’t feel “why me?” (I do feel loopy sometimes because of the drugs though that’s for sure).

Please consider taking a look at the following site and taking part in a memorial run for a good cause. Kristen Hoar-Polizzotto was a beloved MSTCA member and coach who valiantly battled and fought cancer and was a role model to so many athletes, parents, and colleagues.

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.

MSTCA has created a few new positions, any Interested applicants should express their intent to Executive Director Rick Kates via email at rkates2005@gmail.com no later than 4/16/21.
