Cindy Pardue’s is in her first year as head coach of the girls and boys Cross Country team at QHS after coming over from Weston, where she built the program to great heights. She is doing the same a Quitman.

“We are in a season of building and growing and I am so proud of the work each of these athletes have put in,” said Pardue. “I can’t wait to see what their futures hold.”
