Irwin County Cross Country had an outstanding showing at the 10th Annual Tiftarea Panther Prowl this weekend. Despite muddy conditions and challenging terrain, Irwin County runners earned several impressive individual finishes. A'rihanna and Makenzie Wynn placed 4th and 6th in the high school girls' race, helping the team earn 2nd place overall. Ben Bowles finished 6th in the high school boys' race, while Karma Wilkes recorded a personal best in the middle school girls' race. The middle school boys had a remarkable team performance, with Bryce Martin taking 1st place, Parker Griner finishing 3rd, and Micah Parker placing 12th. The Irwin Middle School boys' team finished 1st overall out of seven teams!
Great job, ICXC!!!
This is an amazing accomplishment for this group of students. This marks the first time in years our band has taken an overall superior rating at a marching contest.
Next week, Irwin County Schools will be celebrating National School Lunch Week! We’re looking forward to a fun and exciting week in our cafeterias as we celebrate the important role school nutrition plays in keeping our students fueled and ready to learn.
Stay tuned for some fun activities and celebrations throughout the week! ❤️🖤

The Irwin High School Cross Country teams competed in the Tift County Invitational this weekend, taking on 20+ schools, many of which compete in higher classifications. A’rihanna Wynn, Makenzie Wynn, and Chloe Ruelas competed against a field of 151 runners and put together outstanding performances. All three athletes recorded personal-best times! Lane Pylant and Ben Bowles competed in a challenging field of 168 runners and ran strong races. While neither athlete recorded a personal best, both improved upon their previous times on the Tifton course from last year! The progress is showing, and our Indians continue to compete, improve, and represent Irwin with pride!
Keep pushing. Keep improving. Keep running. IRWIN! ❤️🖤
