Middle School Weekly Athletic Schedule

The final week of the IMS track season is here and we finish with a home meet against Charlotte. 

I would like to thank our track coaches for all the extra work and time they put in to ensure our athletes could have a track and field season. 

I would also like to thank everyone  who has helped throughout the year to make the four middle school seasons possible.  It has been a challenging year and at times it didn’t seem like we were going to get through all of the pauses and hurdles put in front of us.   I appreciate the GRIT our athletes, coaches, parents, testers, and workers have shown and look forward to what we can only hope is a more normal year in 2021-22

You can go to Ioniaathletics.org for results from all contests.

Admission to all IMS Track meets is $3.00 per spectator, senior Gold passes will be accepted for all home contests and IPS staff may attend for free with staff ID
