"We are excited to partner with the OATCCC in support of its high school athletes," MileSplit Vice President Editorial, Joe Battaglia said.

"The OATCCC is excited to partner with Milesplit in promoting and recognizing the great sports of cross country and track and field," OATCCC President, Doug Joy said. "Ohio has some of the most incredible athletes and coaches in the United States and what better way to promote these individuals and teams?" "The OATCCC feels the partnership with Milesplit can help continue the excellence with the indoor state championships, recognize the accomplishments of Ohio's student athletes and great coaches, promote better communications with college coaches and programs, and celebrate cross country and track and field on every level."
