More words to come on the above two! As you’ll see on the girls side, this region is loaded with top-50 returners.
All-around range from Nolan, whether that’s spinning 15:50’s on his home course or ripping 1:57’s in the 800m.
Broken collar bone didn’t stop Bryce from becoming the #2 ranked D2 freshman in this spring’s 3200m.
Up here so high on the heels of an outstanding track season, one in which Jack dropped from 10:17 to 9:34 in the 3200m.
Inspiring freshman to sophomore leap. In any big meet late, Bryce dropped more than a minute. For example, this regional, where he subtracted 65 seconds (17:21 to 16:16) and placed 10th.
Wouldn’t be shocked if the top-10 here are all under 16:00. Ethan’s 9:33 from track is a solid piece of evidence that he can get there.
In three races at Shepherd as a freshman, Brett averaged 16:59. Four races here as a sophomore, averaged 16:11.

The above four are either already posted or will be soon!
Such a journey from the girl opening her career with a 23+ minute race at Birch Run. 10th grade season contained four sub-19 performances, the final one being a 22nd place in D2.
Freshman year was a resounding success, featuring top-10 finishes at the overall TVC meet, Saginaw County, and here.
Past Spartan Invite, she was a changed runner. Alivia went from 22+ there in her first few races to sub-20 in a matter of weeks.
Can do everything on the basketball court and can run really fast off it. Sub-19 in two of her final three races, including a 33rd place at State.
Took only four meets for Kylie’s freshman self to find its way into the 19’s. And heck, by season’s end, she was in the 18’s.
