2021 Ratings: Portage Regional (Friday – 32, 3)

The plan is to go through these regionals in the same order that they were posted. Friday first, starting with regions with less divisions, working towards those with more.

They’ll be a basic show of the ratings and a runner that stepped up. I plan on working back on regional recaps after the season, I always love showcasing success and there will be ample opportunity (and the real factor – time) to do so. Those recaps will feature more teams and individuals.

If you’re a senior (or are a parent/coach of one) that qualified for State, send me a pic of you in your uniform, either running or not running. I want to use those pics in my State Finals graphics. Those that I don’t use in the graphics, I’ll use in the recap.

How Are Speed Ratings Calculated?!

32 Girls Adjustment: +20
3 Girls Adjustment: +18
32 Boys Adjustment: +24
3 Boys Adjustment: +9

People have been clamoring for me to rate different races or divisions on the same course, same day.  I agree with this notion as the course can change and so can the weather conditions.  It does produce a bit more variability in ratings when you’re working with a smaller sample, but I feel it’s applicable for regionals this year.  And since I have the time to do so, I’ll do so here.  Some don’t make as much sense, but you have to understand there’s a range of error with each listing.  The smaller the race, the higher that range.  You’ll see that here, but I believe the change throughout the day will make sense.

PRIMETIME PERFORMERS

Alaina Klooster, Kalamazoo Christian: It’s gonna be quite the battle between Kalamazoo Christian and Muskegon WMC next week.  Comet girls have improved in the past few weeks and laid down some times – two consecutive 20:08s for Alaina.

Ryan Casterline, Battle Creek St. Philip: His 18:49 was a season best and a far cry from the 20+ minute times he put up earlier in the year.

Olivia Ippel, St. Joseph: Season best and *this* close to a personal best, but that’s not an important thing.  St. Joseph was not having a great day and she stepped in as their 3^rd runner.  Her effort saved the day as many teams were clamoring for those 3 spots. 

Kevin Grady, Battle Creek Lakeview: Things looked grim for Lakeview last week as Kalamazoo Central swooped in to capture the SMAC crown, but they came back in a major way Friday.  Grady’s 16:46 almost matched his 16:41 at Otsego and ensured the pledge the Lakeview group made in 2018 – that they would run at MIS in November as seniors.
