The Rundown

This is one of the first bits of considerable writing I’ve thrown towards this downriver boy, but don’t get it twisted, he’s been on my radar for awhile. Logan entered into Riverview with high expectations, winning nearly every race in his 8^th grade year, breaking 5:00 on the track in 7^th grade. And those expectations were put to the test early, when his Pirate team was an underdog, yet in contention for a State Finals team appearance. Young Logan was huge there, running a 17:03 on the shores of Lake Erie to place 8^th and give his Riverview team a MIS experience. This past fall, he took a major leap, averaging low-16’s for much of the season, placing top-10 in Wayne County and Region 18, before grabbing his first All-State certificate of his career. The same occurred on the track, aggressively knocking down new PB’s from 2:12 to 2:03, 4:37 to 4:25, leaving us wondering what new levels he’ll reach this fall.
