Gwinnett County Championships, Conyers GA

Saturday, September 14th      The Gwinnett County Championships serve as a showcase for the major running talent coming out of this county. With powerhouse programs like Mill Creek, Brookwood, North Gwinnett, and Parkview, the front-runners are both fast and fun to watch. Over 1400 county athletes participated in this year's meet, and our Buford XC runners stepped up to the challenge, put themselves out there, and ran against some of the fastest runners in this state.
