mixcspeedratings

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!

His Specialty

Grit.

Grit in doing farmwork as recovery or as part of your pre-run routine.

Grit in two school transfers, sitting out your sophomore year, running on your own, but watching others enjoy moments with their teams.

Grit while being plagued by mono during the XC Finals or with SI joint issues throughout this past spring.

Grit down on MIS’s lonely final turn, with Jonah Workman pulled up on your shoulder, potentially your first defeat looming in a few short minutes.

Many of our runners go through adversity, experiencing life’s varied circumstances. Few of our state’s athletes have done so with the eyes of the running community upon them. Bobby has gritted his teeth, dealt with the downturns, and emerged on the other side as a stoic, confident, and extremely fast guy.

Donning the Whitehall jersey throughout the ’25-’26 season saw Jazwinski go undefeated on the grass, running in the low-15’s on many instances with the occasional foray into the 14’s. He held the fastest time of the day at Spartan, pulled away from the field on a hot day at Portage, and even while under the weather, held on for the D2 state title. He experienced a stunted spring, sparingly racing. With a few weeks of good health under his belt, he was able to summon a 9:07 to win the D2 3200m title, then a few weeks later, extract out a 9:03 for the full 2 miles.

Full steam ahead onto what will be a memorable senior year, with high goals and a determined mind.
