The GHSA state track & field championships for the 56 schools that comprise 6A was held on May 12-14, 2022 at Carrollton High School. The Cambridge Bears were ready to roar and showcase to the state our talented athletes. For three days the team valiantly competed. When it all ended, the girls team finished fifth in the state (the second highest in school history) and the boys finished 13th (the most points scored and the highest finish in school history).
In addition, the school now has a new GHSA State Champion - Olivia Bollenbacher - in pole vault.
