Top Returners

Betsy Skendzel

Has quietly had a brilliant career, made up of a Lake Michigan Conference title, a Region 19 win, and two top-10 Division 3 finishes.

Rylee Duffing

Toughness on the ice leads to toughness on the course. Or is it the other way around? Either way, she’s moved up each and every year, finally slipping under 20:00 at last fall’s regionals.

Mary Masserant

Despite a late start to competing, found her way into the 20’s. Mary was in the top-100 at State for the second consecutive year.

Maddie Gallagher

May have only moved from 15th to 12th in Region 19, but moved through the world at State, nearly halving her finishing place from 2021. Her 64th place finish was key in displacing the 5th (and some 4th) runners of rival teams.

Paige Ritchie

A reliable 21-min. girl as a freshman. Her only deviations were positive ones – running into the 20’s at Ottawa Hills and Cadillac.

Margot Hagerty

Before her Cadillac Invite, she had spent her whole career over 21:00. Her 20:52 there introduced a slew of sub-21 efforts, five of them in her final seven races.

Potential Newcomers

Molly Kate Hollandsworth

Sub-14 in her final three XC races.

Emily Dumphrey

Moved her way all the way down to 13:14, which placed her 8th at Shepherd.
