Top Returners

Elena Figueroa

Just finished her best track season yet, dropping 30+ seconds in the 1600m and more than a minute in the 3200m. Dropped a stunning 4:52 at State, placing 5^th in Division 1.

Gail Vaikutis

The second part of a devastating combination, she was also a figure on the track. Gail claimed victory in the SMAC 800m and 1600m to go with a Region 3 win in the 800m. Multiple 2:1x’s on her resume.

Cecilia Ruchti

After a year absence, found herself back in the 19’s. Ceci moved from 24^th to 9^th in the SMAC and placed in the top-100 at State for the first time ever.

Jade Murdoch

Transformed from a sophomore girl largely running over 23:00 and to a junior that snuck under 20:30 late.

Hannah Wier

Found a groove late in her freshman year, sub-22 in her final six races, including a 20:45 at Portage.

Grace Kelley

2022 season was cut short, but if back, could unlock an even lower place for the Bears. Was All-Region in Region 3 as a freshman and sophomore for the Bears.

Potential Newcomers

Lydia Johnson

Mid-12 efforts on many occasions, winning the Berrien County championship and placing 4^th in Zone 1.

Lily Cummings

Just five races on her 8^th grade portfolio, but was 2^nd in Berrien County and slipped under 13:00 late.
