This spring, Jeremy got his first real chance to prove himself at the state level and he was able to show he belonged
He was contact traced last fall (in a questionable case – and I’m more cautious than most), and thus, missed Pre-Regionals, Regionals, and couldn’t qualify for State
It’s a shame, because he established the late season speed that plagued him the season before, his October races were either victories or running extremely fast
But he was able to scratch together two more sub-16 performances at the Meet of Champions and RunningLane
This past spring, his presence was finally felt at the State level, with a 3rd place 3200m finish at MITS and 10th/11th place finishes in the 1600/3200m at D1 State
And may have finished higher in the 3200m if he didn’t have a race under his belt, but we can appreciate the effort in doubling to try to achieve All-State in both
He’s a student both in the classroom and of the sport (he’s shooting high in his college choices and he predicted the Top 8 here in order), and I can’t wait to see him mix it up at MIS

Rachel is in the same line as her sisters, and may end up being the best of the bunch on the shorter stuff
She’s broken 60 in the quarter in a relay split, was part of a state-winning 4×8, and nabbed a 3rd place finish in the 800m later that same day
A few weeks later, she went 4:48 at the Illinois Meet of Champions
That’s not to say she’s subpar at the longer distances, she went sub-18 with so many victories last fall
SEC Red, D1 State, Pre-Regional, Meet of Champions were all in the 17’s, with wins at all but State and Meet of Champions
Her 2nd place finish at MIS is the highest returning finish in Division 1, and we know with that speed that she will be a threat in any race where it’s close
