Where that speed came from, I have no clue, I’m not sure she does either
Madison had a promising freshman cross campaign, knocking down the 19:00 door multiple times, placing All-State
But her freshman track season was otherworldly, especially in the shorter distances
After battling COVID for much of April, even into May, a few short weeks later she was running 2:15/5:08, capturing All-State in the 800 and 1600m, along with numerous wins at Regionals and in the I-8 Conference
After a full summer of healthy training, she competed in her sophomore year of cross country with that same vigor posted in track, winning over 60% of her races
And the races she didn’t win were all burners, a 2nd place in D3 at Portage, 12th place at State
During track, she set new heights even with an already high bar, nearly breaking 5:00 in the 1600m and moving up 2 places in the D3 State 800m
Madison and Lumen Christi both have huge aspirations this fall, I’m eager to view the journey towards achieving those

Linden’s had an outstanding one-two punch the past few seasons, River Meckstroth and Kyle, now it’s Kyle’s turn to solely lead the Eagles
And given his championship seasons in both cross and track, he’s more than capable and ready
Take a look at those top times and ratings, all four were post-October 1st, hitting times in good conditions, grabbing a win at Flint Metro League
And he finished 2nd in his region as well
It’s rough when you create these photoshops and you run out of room to mention all the titles
Kyle scored 40 individual points at Flint Metro League, winning the 400m through 3200m
And he was All-State in both the 800m and 1600m
Even after capturing all these crowns, Kyle wasn’t finished, hitting a new 800m PB, 1:56, at GVSU
Winning all the time is sweet, even sweeter is defending your crowns, would you bet on anyone else to hold off all challengers?
