MHC Rattlers runner Maddy Scrimger delivered a performance for the ages this weekend at the ACAC Indoor Track Championships in Edmonton. 

Scrimger, a second-year nursing student, hit the podium four times during the meet.  She ran to silver medals in both the 1500m and 3000m events, recorded a bronze medal in the 1000m, and combined with teammates Brooklyn Kaczynski, Annika Marshall, and Kabri Stickel for another bronze medal in the 4 x 200m relay.

For her efforts, Scrimger was named to the ACAC Indoor Track All Conference team for the 2024.
