It’s baaack. A summertime tradition has returned, the 50 Tickets to Brooklyn. These lists celebrate the top 50 returners – based on a concoction of the ’25 XC season, projected improvements, the ’26 Track season, and a tiny bit of my own input.
Enjoy!

Her Championship Season
Was fully engrossed in all the Lansing Catholic success. From Portage on, the Cougars rattled off victory after victory (with one exception, a runner-up finish at Greater Lansing). Within all those hoisted trophies was Josie, continually running sub-19, race after race. Her October began with a runner-up finish in the D3 race at Portage, where she matched her personal best from P-W. Eleven days later came her fastest time of the year, an 18:34 in the final CAAC White Jamboree. Her second place regional performance from ’24 was matched and her State Finals, greatly surpassed, as she came home with in the 6th spot, greatly aiding Lansing Catholic in their title defense.

Her Championship Season
Was just more of the same. I mean that as a compliment! Throughout her three seasons on the cross course, Libby has racked up accolades at every championship level. In her league, the SAC? Nine jamborees, nine wins. Portage, the unofficial West Michigan championship? The lowest she’s finished is 5th. Up the road in Allendale for Region 31? Back-to-back victories. And representing tiny Gobles at the state level? Gradually moving up in D4, from 7th as a freshman to 3rd as a sophomore to 2nd as a junior.

Her Championship Season
Was a struggle for a time, then ended on a high note. Following a sophomore year where she won most of her TVC races and claimed victory in Region 15, Kaczor failed to win any league races and placed a disappointing 5th in the region. That was all redeemed on November 1st. It wasn’t done easily, however, as Clara had faded to 28th at the two-mile mark, potentially falling back off the podium. However, past experience of success at MIS and a bit of grit helped propel Kaczor in the final stretch, as she moved up 15 spots to place 13th.

Her Championship Season
In the fall, affirmed what we largely knew before her freshman year – that the talent was there. In the spring, showed us what we may not have known – there’s some resilience, too. Grace’s October and November featured a girl that handled each stage, racing to high places in the tough OK Red and Region 1. The State Finals may be the grandest setting, bleachers towering over the competitors in the finishing stretch, but that didn’t sway Snyder on her path to a sub-18. Track didn’t go so swimmingly, as Grace didn’t get to start racing in earnest until May. But with only a few races under her belt, she pulled out a 3200m qualifier on regional day, then a few weeks later, smoked through the 11 min. barrier, placing 11th in the freshman field at New Balance.

Her Championship Season
Featured yet another race where McInerney threw down an unforeseen performance. At the tail end of her sophomore fall, Ella ripped a 18:31 at State, nearly matching her then PR, a far cry from the 19/20 min. efforts that crowded her early season meets. She was consistently a mid-low 19 min. figure during last fall’s campaign, then once again turned it up into the mid-18’s at season’s close, notching her second consecutive podium performance at State.

Her Championship Season
Featured many of the better races of Mia’s career. One was for sure her PR set at the 2nd RCA Jamboree, a 17:52 beauty. Another was her runner-up finish at the Allendale Region, her best placing at the regional level. Regrettably, her State Finals performance wasn’t one of the better races. But with subpar efforts come the chance for redemption, which May definitely accomplished in this past May. She slipped under 11:00 for the 3200m, then four weeks later, notched her second consecutive All-State in the event.

Her Championship Season
Was spent reaching a level she hadn’t previously found. Evidence that it could happen came a few times in September – namely at Spartan and Bluejay. Each meet had its own adversity, either a tougher course or unseasonably warm weather. Each of those two instances had Alivia running much quicker than she had a year prior. Those two meets set the stage for her final three. In Shepherd, Ottinger ran her two fastest marks ever. At the Division 2 Finals, she nailed down her best finish, a 16th place.

Her Championship Season
Unfortunately ended at the DeWitt Regional. But man, Ella was sure on a course for a great close to the fall. An unseasonably warm day at Portage was dealt with easily, Lorenz dropping nearly 50 sec. from her time at that place in 2024. She dropped six places in the KLAA, moving from 9th as a freshman to 3rd as a sophomore, racing to a PR in the process. The foundation was there for a great close, which I’m sure will happen in the coming years, given the opportunity.

Her Championship Season
In track was spent righting past wrongs. Each of the past two Novembers, Mulder hasn’t had her greatest performance at MIS (which is fine, we don’t judge on ONE race). A few races into her spring campaign and her 3200m efforts (mid-11’s in late April) were markedly improved compared to any past performance. At the beginning of May, when the OK Black Championship came, so too did Mulder’s big breakthrough. Her 10:56 won the whole dang thing, a 30+ sec. PR in the process. That PR led to a qualifier at Region 2, then a 11:04 at Rockford that further validated her season.

Her Championship Season
In cross was spent running high-level race after high-level race. Faced with an important race, Isom delivered, running her fastest time on the MIS course and winning her conference. Track is where we especially Lane’s ability to come in the clutch. In the early part of the season, Isom had thrown down the fastest 800m time in D1, which of course put a mark on her back heading into the State Finals. Even with the added pressure, Isom didn’t waver, finding a way to victory in the final stages of the race. She wasn’t done just yet, as two weeks later, she was able to set a lifetime best – 2:07.86.
