Kenny and another stud to be named later form a two-headed monster that could be the best in Division 1
It’s been a long journey of growth for him and it doesn’t seem like the end is even in sight
He started 2018 in the 18’s and moved into the high-16’s as a sophomore, but exhibited some extreme progress between his sophomore and junior years
Kenny dropped his State Meet time from 17:08 to 16:04 and in the process, dropped 134 spots to nab that last All-State prize
He can win big races, evidenced by his 1600m win at SVL over another runner to be named
He can peak at the right time, his PB coming at MIS, something only 19 of the top 100 boys in Division 1 accomplished
His regional meet didn’t go so hot as he was spiked in the 1600m and I believe he lost his shoe, but I’m sure that experience has fueled his summer training
Eliza has shown she both has the speed and endurance to make a mark at the HS level
Her 2:24 800m in track ranks #26 nationally amongst 8th graders and is #15 in Michigan over the past 5 years
Her 19:05 at the Meet of Champions lends evidence to the fact that she can move up in distance
And she’s been purely dominant at the 2 mile cross country distance when compared to her peers
Her 12:28 at Sharp Park is the fastest girls MS time that I can find, the only one coming close was Meg Scheske, who broke 19:00 as a freshman and was a 3x All-Stater
At the Hudson Mills South Course, she was the 2nd fastest athlete of both girls AND boys
