2026 Ratings: Wagener Park Regional (25, 35)

Boys Adjustment: +28
Girls Adjustment: +28

STEPPIN’ UP ON REGIONAL DAY

One race here was given a little uncertainty, even if not initially stated in the post. In the month prior to the girls race in Region 35, only three schools had five or more runners compete. This was actually a battle of who could fill the starting box with five bodies. Deckerville was able to do so, adding two girls to the lineup who hadn’t run yet in 2026. This happened in Region 36 as well. If the trend of lessening numbers continues, perhaps the MHSAA needs to look into reducing the number of D4 regions.

On a more positive note than our decreased numbers, some runners that stepped up:

Zophia Zaleski, Hemlock – has had a wholesale change between her 9^th and 10^th grade years. Heck, there’s even a chasm between her races prior to regionals and her race here at Wagener Park. Zophia ran a 20:22, a minute clear of her previous best and 2+ min. clear of how she was able to perform as a freshman.

Joe Lubeski, Caseville – over 75% of races during Joe’s career had been of the >20 min. variety. Definitely not Saturday’s regional effort, an 18:21 and top-10 placing.

Kayle Talaski, North Huron – graph this one. Kayle’s season began with a 30:59 opener at Bad Axe’s Under the Lights meet. She dropped 7 minutes before her next race, and 2 minutes from that second race to now.

Xavier Teneyuque, Carrollton – Jacob Tanner mentioned that Teneyuque had an outside chance of qualifying, the projections said the same (23^rd place on average with a range of 7^th-41^st). He’d shown recently that he could be on the lower end of that range, sub-18 at two of his past three races. He affirmed that with an 11^th place finish and massive new PR, 17:10.
