In front of the whole state at Portage, he put it all together, and things kept getting better and better from there. 16:04 at his home course was a 30 sec. PB and led the way toward multiple sub-16’s and an All-State.
Season contained more than a handful of sub-17 efforts, which seemed to all coincide with major meets. Regionals, Portage, Otsego Bulldog, and his 16:24 to close at Shepherd.
Highly touted freshman lived up to the billing, a few times in cross with sub-17’s. Even more so in track, his 4:35 among the top-10 freshmen in Division 1.
His 16:54 at Otsego was one of two separate occasions under 17:00. Keep in mind that one year earlier, many of his finishes were 60+ seconds slower.
Showed something in the mid-distance realm during track, popping a 2:00 late in the spring at Houseman Field.
Freshman slowly but surely dropped time throughout various points of the year. His last three races of his inaugural season were his best, all sub-17:45. Though to me, the real showstopper was his track season, especially his 1600m, ranking 31st amongst all D1 freshman with his 4:44.
I wouldn’t expect anything less from this coach’s son. Consistency! Try to find the bad race in his season, I dare you. 17:30 to 17:50 all throughout, with one minor hiccup.
Went from a kid running above 19:00 as a freshman to someone who was on the cusp of slipping under 17:00 as a sophomore.
Potential Newcomers
Reached down as far as 11:29 to place 6th in the KAMSL.
Sub-12 in three of his final four races, then sub-5 on the track to end the season.
