PROJECTIONS

How Right/Wrong Was I?

Four of six teams, including an unanticipated, unexpected TWO upsets in the girls race. Sittin’ at 117 of 132 teams.

SOUTH CHRISTIAN SPEED CITY

I will highlight one kid from each race for a little writeup. With Regionals and their survive and advance attitude, I’ll try to shout out someone who extended their season another week when they weren’t expected to, or contributed to a team that came in with a clutch performance. Of course, that leaves out many athletes who gave a great effort, and all of the athletes that were winners for toeing the line this weekend. Congrats to all.

Ahna Wotjer, GR West Michigan Aviation

WMAA wasn’t even in the ballpark of teams I’d consider making it out of here, projected at less than 5% chance of advancing. When teams such as these do move on, it’s always a concerted effort from everyone, including a girl like Ahna, who stepped up in a major way. Of the 100+ girls that competed in the varsity race, and Ahna was one of them, breaking into the 20’s on her largest stage yet.

Grace Kooyer, Grand Rapids South Christian

Was one of the other ones to set a PR. But after two straight years of South Christian defying the expectations, one should come to expect it. Grace has gone through a bit of growth over the past year. Last fall, she wasn’t even on the Sailors’ varsity squad at Regionals, this year she was an integral member (and two minutes faster on this same course).

William O’Dell, Battle Creek Harper Creek

I guess three trips to MIS weren’t enough for William. He’s made it there all throughout his career. In 2020 and 2021, he qualified with his Harper Creek teammates, individually the past two years. Both of these final years were top-12 efforts and this Saturday, he looks to have his best State Finals finish yet.
