Top Returners

August Rohde

Took the sophomore leap and then some. Busted out a 16:37 at Benzie early, then waited ‘til the best possible moment to beat that, a 16:36 at State.

Anthony Kiaunis

Really proud of the way he conducted his track season. His cross year began great, with two performances in the 16’s, but those times weren’t replicated the rest of the year. A lesser man may let that carry over to track, but he’s no lesser man, he decided to run personal bests from the 400m-1600m.

Ryan Allen

Ended his track season just as he did cross season, showing considerable strength in championship races. His 10:23 from Region 23 is impressive considering a 1600m best of 4:49, and points to an ability to grind through tough races.

Aaron Allen

Aaron was probably one of the steadier runners in the state last fall, running the equivalent of 19-flat efforts (by the ratings, at least) for much of the season. That is, until his final two races, a personal best at Chippewa Hills and an 18:27 at MIS.

Paul Saladin

Similar to many of his ‘Yote teammates, Paul had a significant personal best in the biggest race of the year – demolishing 19-flat at State.

Orlando VanLeeuwen

A transfer from LeRoy-Pine River, Orlando was able to secure a 27 sec. PB in the 1600m during track.

Potential Newcomers

Brady Dozier

Consistent figure in the low-13’s, even a 12:29 in there too!

Liam Vanscoyoc

Just as Brady, a sub-13 mixed in with a ton of 13-min. efforts. Those solid efforts typically translate to freshmen that need a bit of seasoning, but have the ability to contribute at the D3 level.
