The List
9. Clara James-Heer, Forest Hills Central
- Clara enters the 2020 season rated as the #1 freshman girl
- A few major factors in that
- Margin of victory – more than a minute in a competitive Allendale Falcon
- Nearly a record-breaking Portage performance, 4 seconds off Arianne Olson’s time from 2018, and we know she had a spectacular freshman campaign
- Victories over stellar competition: Enns, Ford, Harrand
- She proved her mettle on the track this winter as well, running 4:57 and 10:25
- We will wait to see how she performs over the additional 1.1 miles, but her times indicate someone capable of competing at the top level
9. Preston Navarre, Grosse Pointe North
- Preston came into his own late in the 2018 season, vaulting past a group of talented Grosse Pointe North seniors
- He expanded on that this past season, extending his victories out into his region and the MAC Division, besting tough competition from Romeo
- He’s been All-State twice, All-Region twice (champion last year), and top-5 in Wayne County this past year
- Has shown some serious mid-distance ability, running 4:23 as a sophomore
- Will be instrumental as a leader in continuing North’s reign over Grosse Pointe South
