After following Abbie Draheim’s lead, it’s now Anna’s turn to take over as the lead girl for East Lansing
She was solid as a freshman, breaking 20:00, but really established some consistency as a sophomore
Unfortunately did not get to compete at State, but she performed admirably during championship season and would have been a contender for an All-State spot
Took a leap forward in track and it wasn’t just a few outlier races – multiple sub 5:10/11:20 efforts
Noah quietly had a great cross country season, with only one defeat coming before mid-October, culminating in an 8th place finish at MIS
For a kid that’s run under 17:00 all three years, he’s flown under my radar for the first 2.5 years of his career
But he exploded this track season under the guidance of Coach Thiebaut
He set major PBs – dropping from 5:03 to 4:20 and 10:33 to 9:33 in two years time
It’s not just the times, he’s shown up in major races with a few conference titles, winning the Cadillac News 1600m (I’m sure Paul McMullen loved watching down upon this), and narrowly missed a state title in the 3200m
