10/01/2024

Cameron Lawrence, one of our founding student athletes, was a kid who lived life to the fullest and never knew a stranger. Sadly his life was cut short a few months ago by a tragic accident.

His family - Brenda, Bill, and Mack - would like to sponsor four student athletes in the WV NICA league for the 2025 season; a high school boy, a high school girl, a middle school boy, and a middle school girl, in honor of Cam.

The Cam Lawrence "Send It" Endowment will help four other families make memories like the Lawrences did while Cam was racing with us.

Please join us in thanking the Lawrences for this incredible gift, and continue to keep them in your hearts.

Entries are being accepted from now until October 11 at the link below:

The Morgan County Owls represented Morgan County for the first time at the West Virginia Interscholastic Cycling League Cacapon race this weekend!

"Ya'll. What. A. Day. I can’t say enough how proud I am of our riders! The transformation we’ve seen since our first practice in July is nothing short of amazing. This season was a learning experience for all of us, and believe me when I say it’s just the beginning. I am so excited to see how our team grows!

Parents, thank you for bringing your kids out and for trusting us to coach them. Without your support, this team couldn’t exist.

While this race is likely the last one we will participate in this season, the season isn’t over. We are still planning to have practice as long as the weather will allow us to. And even when the season is officially over, we would love to still meet up to keep the kids riding.

Great job today, Owls! HOOTY HOO!"

Morgan County WV has its very own West Virginia Interscholastic Cycling League affiliated youth composite mountain bike team! What does composite mean? It means that the team will accept 6th -12th grade students from the surrounding area to include MD. PA. and VA.

We are holding another "Try It" event this coming Wednesday June 26th at the Cacapon State Park 5:30pm. We'll meet near the Rock and Roll trailhead. Look for the red canopy that will be set up in the area. This will be a great opportunity to try out mountain biking!

We will not be doing any trail riding for this event. We will focus on riding fundamentals, games and other activities that everyone can participate in, regardless of skill level. A serviceable bike, helmet and closed toe shoes are sufficient. We will have team loaner bikes on hand as well.

For those not yet registered, there is a waiver that will need to be filled out on-line. Please get these done as soon as possible. See below:

League Core Principles:

Equality
All student-athletes are treated equally. Team scores are a combination of points scored by both boys and girls.

Inclusiveness
All student-athletes participate 100% of the time. No one is “benched” and everyone is encouraged to try racing, irrespective of how fast – or slow – they may be.

Strong Body
NICA emphasizes wellness through lifestyle, nutrition and exercise. Improving physical fitness and overall wellness are at the center of NICA’s training and education.

Strong Mind
NICA student-athletes are students first. Our program encourages academic excellence.
Strong Character
