The Saints follow a competitive schedule featuring league and conference play with community colleges throughout the Northwest, as well as matches with some of the four-year colleges.
Quick attacks and aggressive defense are the keys to the Saints’ success.
Our athletes have the privilege of training and competing in one of the finest track & field stadiums in the Pacific Northwest.
We take great pride in our men and women’s cross country and track & field programs. Over the past several years we have placed numerous student-athletes into quality 4-year programs around the United States.
The geography surrounding our campus is ideally suited for year-round training and racing; moreover, our athletes are offered a number of performance-oriented opportunities that are unprecedented by community college standards.
We offer a competitive schedule that allows our teams to travel within four states – California, Idaho, Oregon and Washington – seeking the highest quality competition. In addition, MHCC has a stable core of young and energetic event-specific coaches who possess the necessary expertise to ensure top-flight athletic development. Simply said, our cross country and track & field programs are top-of-the-line.
