The largest Pack group to ever go to Junior Nationals in 2023. 49 athletes made the trip to Lousiville Kentucky where the 11-12 girls would finish 5th, and the 13-14 boys finished 3rd. The 13-14 girls and the 11-12 year old boys were crowned national champions and were the first two teams ever to win a team national championships.
