The 2025 Class B boys track state champions from Quitman High School received the spoils of their victory on Thursday, February 19th, when they received their state championship rings during a special Ring Ceremony that took place following the Quitman Elementary basketball vs Homer game.

Under the tutelage of second-year track coach Cindy Pardue, the Wolverines claimed their fourth-ever Class B boys track state title, equaling the tremendous accomplishments earned in 1989, 1990, and again in 2017. Also recognized was 2025 Class B Most Valuable Performer, Nathan Harvey, who claimed three gold medals after winning the 110 and 300 meter hurdles and running a leg on the 4×200 and 4×400 winning relay teams.

Additional gold medal winners, along with Harvey, were Brody Cotten, Jayden Harts, and Brayden Smith in the 4×200-meter relays, Gage Horton, Harts, and Smith in the 4×400-meter relays, and Asher Schultz, who won the javelin competition. Quitman won the title by earning five gold medals, a second, two thirds, and a fifth-place finish to outpoint fellow District 1B competitor Castor by a 72-67 margin.
