The competition from the Huntsville teams has been fierce as they are strong, top-notch programs. So to say we are proud of the accomplishments of our two teams thus far would be an understatement - especially for just our second season of GreenpowerUSA and with our #999 team being a new, first-year team. We look forward to an exciting finish to the season in Chattanooga, TN this weekend at the green|spaces Chattanooga F24 race. It should be a blast!

Throughout this season we traveled over 1,600 miles to attend 7 races in Alabama, Georgia, & Tennessee. We could not be more excited to announce that our brand new #999 team earned a grand total of 1,331 season points out the possible 1,540, more than any other middle school team in the entire United States - making them the 2019 National Champions in the middle school division. Additionally our #000 team earned a total of 1,258 season points, placing them 2nd in the nation for the middle school division.
Their dedication to competing at such a high level across an entire season against so many veteran, top-notch programs was remarkable. So to say we are proud of the accomplishments of our two teams would be an understatement - especially for just our second season of GreenpowerUSA and with our #999 team being a brand new, first-year team.
We’d like to thank our sponsors, team parents, & our school administration for their support. Coaching these two teams has been an honor and a privilege, and definitely one of the highlights of my 15 years at Long Cane Middle School. Congratulations to Cougar Strong Racing #999 & #000 - #1 & #2 in the Nation! -Mr. Graham 🏆🏁🔋🏎💨🐾
