Welcome to NCXCTF.com, the online home of the Nelson County Cardinal Cross Country and Track & Field teams!

          Nelson County High School, located in Bardstown KY, is a charter member of the Mid-Kentucky Athletic Conference and currently competes in Class AA Region 2 in both Cross County and Track & Field. 
          The 2018 Cross Country season was a history-maker for our program, as the girls team won both CONFERENCE CHAMPIONS and REGION CHAMPIONS. The girls finished in the STATE TOP-TEN for the first time since 1981 and had two ALL-CONFERENCE and ALL-REGION athletes, with two of our runners named to the Kentucky Freshmen All-Star team that finished NATIONAL RUNNER-UP.  They've finished in the state top-25 for 7 YEARS RUNNING!  The boys also had a great season, with two ALL-CONFERENCE and ALL-REGION ATHLETES and one ALL-STATE ATHLETE.  The boys have finished in the state Sweet Sixteen for FOUR STRAIGHT SEASONS, and had two runners named to the state All-Star Team that competed at the Foot Locker NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS!
          The 2019 Track & Field season continued our historic success, with over 30 conference and region medalists and a school-record-tying 29 qualifiers to the KHSAA AA STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS.

NCXCTF's own Erin O'Neill recently signed to continue her academic and athletic career at Allegheny College in Meadsville, PA.
Erin has led the team almost her entire high school tenure, and carried us from some of our greatest challenges, like a straight-outta-nowhere state qualification in 2017 to a REGION CHAMPIONSHIP the very next year! She's a 6-year varsity letterman and the only NCHS athlete in history to be part of a team state championship qualification for every eligible varsity season (grade 7-12). Erin leaves a legacy of remarkable success that is matched only by her unwavering dedication to the team.  Way to go, Erin! We're so proud of you!

COACH SAYS:
"Always drink an 8 ounce glass of water right when you get up in the morning.  You wake up in a dehydrated state.  Think about it--when else do you go for 8 or more hours with nothing to drink?  It'll probably taste nasty to you when you first start doing it, but you'll get used to it."

Almost 5 years ago, the NCXC Class of 1993 will be celebrated their 20th reunion. 
Can you believe that?  And Coach Bradley had hair!  Can you believe that?
(2012's Track & Field MVP Trey W.'s dad Kyle C. is back row, third from right. 
That means Coach Bradley is in his second generation of coaching.  Ouch.)
