Division 3 Finals: Stats & Ratings

Surprise Teams

Between the boys and girls, ONE team greatly exceeded expectations – the Traverse City St. Francis boys. Normally, I’d refer to the Glads’ championship experience, TCSF capturing the past two titles. But of their squad that competed in early November, only one boy could point back to a MIS performance, William Ready. Although Ready couldn’t quite capture his 2024 magic (11th place), he was able to summon his best effort of a shortened season.

Beyond Ready, all of the TCSF boys placed higher than projected. Three stood out:

Harper Mullet projected 169th and placed 108th, dropping nearly a 30 sec. PR

Nate Gorman – projected 168th and placed 120th, over 1.5 minutes faster than his 2024 best

Hayden Mohrhardt – projected 195th and placed 134th, his first time in the 17’s all season

With everyone returning and positive momentum from their collective effort, expect TCSF to return to podium consideration in 2026.

Unexpected All-Staters

Alaina Civinskas, Roscommon – projected 53rd with a 30.7% chance of All-State, placed 8th

What did it take?

By golly, just look at that athletic.net profile. Alaina figured some things out late in the year, making a huge leap in the final weeks of the season. Can’t wait to see where she builds from here.

Anna Hallett, Blissfield – projected 54th with a 23.9% chance of All-State, placed 20th

What did it take? Her second straight sub-20 ever. Hallett’s 20th place finish was also nearly 100 places ahead of where she finished as a sophomore (also close to 200 places better than she was here as a freshman).

Natalie Rosema, Hart – projected 33rd with a 10.6% chance of All-State, placed 23rd

What did it take? A 10 sec. PR, even faster than the 19:33 she laid down at Benzie. Rosema had been a consistent mid-20 girl for much of the year, but obviously raced at a much higher level in early November.

Marlowe Walcott, Reed City – projected 39th with a 32.9% chance of All-State, placed 29th

What did it take? A match of her regional performance and a return to early season form. Walcott ended August with a 19:23 at Oiler and ended her Reed City season with a 19:28 at MIS.

Alaina Civinskas entered a new stratosphere in championship season; MLive

Jacob Mankey, Ithaca – projected 34th with a 37.3% chance of All-State, placed 15th

What did it take? Running a solid 30+ seconds faster than a majority of his races during the season. Prior to State, Mankey had been over 16:40 for all but one race (a 16:13 at Dale Devine the week before Regionals). At MIS, he found a 7 second PR, ending his career with his first All-State ever.

William Gancer, Stockbridge – projected 38th with a 30.9% chance of All-State, placed 21st

What did it take? A 16:13, 16 second PR, and his 8th sub-17 of the year. He’d been at that level only once in 2024.

Paul Saladin, Reed City – projected 67th with a 28.1% chance of All-State, placed 23rd

What did it take? A match of his 16:14 the week prior at Benzie. Before Region 20, Saladin had been on the high side of 17 for all of October. Glad to see him return to quick times for his final trek to MIS.

Trenton Fetter, Adrian Madison – projected 43rd with a 29.1% chance of All-State, placed 25th

What did it take? A year-long wait for another personal best. Fetter’s 16:22 here a year ago was a breakout performance and showed he was very capable of stepping onto the podium. The wait was worth it, with Fetter dropping 8 seconds from his 2024 effort.

Michael Weidmayer, Blissfield – projected 35th with a 19.8% chance of All-State, placed 26th

What did it take? A minute improvement from his freshman to sophomore year. 2024’s State Finals showed Weidmayer could have a penchant for performing well when it matters most, as he dropped a 30+ sec. PR in that moment. His PR performance from this November wasn’t as dramatic, but it was a PR nonetheless.

Maxwell Durham, New Haven – projected 42nd with a 2.1%(!!!) chance of All-State, placed 27th

What did it take? The long shot of the meet came by way of a 11 second personal best. Durham had been under 17:00 a few times in the fall, but was mainly in the high-16’s. A 16:26 to place 5th in Region 26 paved the way toward a 27th place MIS finish.

Isaac Cox, Plymouth Christian Academy – projected 37th with a 22.8% chance of All-State, placed 29th

What did it take? Being the top freshman in the D3 field. Cox matched his great performance from Gabriel Richard, his second 16:15 of the fall.

Tristan Hernandez, Kingsley – projected 47th with a 19.5% chance of All-State, placed 30th

What did it take? A continuation of the momentum from his Region 20 victory. The win at Benzie led to Hernandez’s return to MIS, where he dropped 40 sec. from his freshman mark.

Perfectly Paced

Just as it’s described, the runners that hit as close to their average pace as possible. Pace is based on their overall time, though the figures include the mile splits.

Quickest Kick

Once again, just as it sounds. The fastest times from the 3 mile mark to the finish. I hope everyone listed tries their hand at a 400 or 800 this spring. If you have this sort of energy at the end of a 5k, you might have some secret mid-distance skill we didn’t know about.

Division 4 Finals: Stats & Ratings

Ahh, feels good to be back. This is the time of the year where I feel like an athlete, needing my down time after an arduous season. I’ve already put out some much too early 2026 rankings, now time to delve a little deeper into the stats of the State Finals. There will be more to come from the other divisions and more writings dedicated to the team and individual champions.

Surprise Teams

The one team with a penchant for proving the projections wrong was able to do so – the Petoskey St. Michael girls. The Guardians were projected to place 15th, with a range of 11th to 21st. Their 10th spot was much better than either. Almost all of the Guardian girls placed better than expected:

Mea Wesley – projected 76th, placed 52nd
Sofia Cadarette – projected 145th, placed 86th
Ella Nolan – projected 131st, placed 92nd
Helena Ramsey – projected 209th, placed 181st
Nora Weed – projected 228th, placed 223rd

The only girl that was a little higher than initially thought was Veronica Paga, who has much to hang her hat on this fall, including a 20+ sec. personal best in her Region 28 win.

There weren’t any boys teams that fell on the good side of defying expectations, hitting outside of their projected range. But a few were close, such as Petoskey St. Michael, Webberville, and Ubly.

The Guardians were projected 10th, their range was wide with many potential outcomes, and they placed at the very top of it with a 4th place finish. PSM had season or personal bests from their top-three, including Atticus Cadarette and Caleb Chamberlin who vaulted into the 16’s for the first time ever.

Webberville had a huge day from senior Ethan West, who nearly matched his exceptional regional performance with a 17:27. Gavin Howery also stepped up, running his fastest time of the season.

Ubly had clutch performances from their two seniors, Michael Walsh and Guy Knoblock. Knoblock had put forth a season full of 20:00+ efforts, but was able to summon his first sub-19 ever. Walsh closed his senior year with a season best.

Unexpected All-Staters

Amelia McKinney dropped a 20:06 to finish 22nd; MLive

Eight girls stepped out onto the podium when not projected to do so:

Lindsey Nordyke, Byron Center Zion Christian – projected 40th with a 33% chance of All-State, placed 13th

What did it take? Only a 43 second personal best and her first ever trip into the 19’s.

Amelia Hoyt, Bellaire – projected 36th with a 6% chance of All-State, placed 21st

What did it take? Being the 2nd fastest 8th grader in the field. Also, nearly a 40 sec. personal best and her first run into the 19’s.

Amelia McKinney, Grand Traverse Academy – projected 31st with a 40% chance of All-State, placed 22nd

What did it take? Her second-fastest time of the fall, matching the 20:06 that she raced to a week prior at Benzie.

Brooklyn Griffin, Buckley – projected 65th with a 19% chance of All-State, placed 24th

What did it take? Her second run in the extremely low-20’s, nearly matching her time from Benzie the week prior. Each mark was significantly lower than the rest of her season, which was largely spent over 21:00.

Payton King, Kingston – projected 41st with a 28% chance of All-State, placed 25th

What did it take? Almost a 15 sec. personal best and her fifth straight effort in the 20’s.

Adrienne Mitchell, Lansing Christian – projected 39th with a 34% chance of All-State, placed 26th

What did it take? Her fastest mark of the season, even faster than the highly competitive Greater Lansing or on the quick Happy Acres course.

Alyssa Spicer, Mesick – projected 42nd with a 19% chance of All-State, placed 27th

What did it take? Dropping two minutes from her best time from 2024. Spicer’s 20:11 nearly matched the 20:05 she ran at Benzie a week prior.

Haley Stimer, Concord – projected 47th with a 9% chance of All-State, placed 29th

What did it take? Her fastest race since her freshman year. Stimer’s 20:17 was her third consecutive season best.

A season best from Adrienne Mitchell led to a podium finish; MLive

Six unexpected All-Staters, including:

Jacob Ferdubinski, Riverview Gabriel Richard – projected 32nd with a 46% chance of All-State, placed 21st

What did it take? A trip back into the 16’s, a place he’d only been to twice since mid-September. Perfect timing.

Cole Brege, Rogers City – projected 60th with a 26% chance of All-State, placed 22nd

What did it take? His first sub-17 in over two months. Brege had been in the low-17’s for much of the year, including a 17:00.5 to place 3rd in Region 28, but hadn’t matched the 16:53 he laid down in his opener. That is, until his 16:43 at MIS.

Lance Niedzielski, Mason County Eastern – projected 38th with a 23% chance of All-State, placed 23rd

What did it take? His second sub-17 of the year, both coming in the final two weeks of the year.

Nolan Koscinski, Bear Lake – projected 75th with an 8% chance of All-State, placed 26th

What did it take? Dropping over three minutes from the fastest time of his freshman year and more than a minute than what he’d typically been running here in 2025.

Caleb Chamberlin, Petoskey St. Michael – projected 63rd with a 7% chance of All-State, placed 28th

What did it take? The end of a PR cascade that started at Bluejay (17:58) and ended here, at 16:49.

Reuben Jiran, Novi Christian Academy – projected 37th with a 26% chance of All-State, placed 29th

What did it take? Dropping nearly 40 sec. from his time here in 2024 and dipping into the 16’s for the third time in three weeks.

Lance Niedzielski dropped another sub-17 enroute to a medal; MLive

Perfectly Paced

Just as it’s described, the runners that hit as close to their average pace as possible. Pace is based on their overall time, though the figures include the mile splits.

I found it interesting that Holland Calvary Christian had such a heavy presence here. The Crusaders raced with a wisdom accumulated from multiple trips here, running about as optimal a race as possible.

Mason Rogers’ patient racing bodes well for the coming years; MLive

Quickest Kick

Once again, just as it sounds. The fastest times from the 3 mile mark to the finish. I hope everyone listed tries their hand at a 400 or 800 this spring. If you have this sort of energy at the end of a 5k, you might have some secret mid-distance skill we didn’t know about.

2026 Rankings: Way Too Early Girls

There is much to get to this off-season. State Final ratings, MITCA as well. Writeups of the championship teams. Perhaps some ideas of how Kamari, Katie, Emma, Romeo, and Pioneer will fare at NXN. That’s not even to mention Brooks! A look back at the speed and adjustments of courses. Finding who improved most in 2025. But first, I can’t help but look to 2026. The foundation of the following fall will be built now, the winter miles key toward a strong track season that could lead to a stronger cross season.

So what better than some early, way too early rankings? These are formed from the same rankings that were fairly predictive at the Regional and State levels (or led to mid-pack finishes at MITCA *shrug*), filtering out seniors, adding in projected improvements, then scoring it as a whole division XC meet. The projected improvements are based on the past five years of data, the formulas attempting to portray how much a runner at a certain grade and speed progresses in the next season. I do realize that there will be division changes, typically released in March. By then, I should have incoming freshmen added into the equation, and will edit the divisions as needed.

For now, a simple show of the returners. Use it as motivation.

DIVISION FOUR

What a run for the Whitmore Lake seniors. The Trojan class of ’26 (Elodie Weaver, Carina Burchi, Sofia Robertson) presided over four regional titles and three D4 titles in their four year reign. Two-time D4 champ Kaylie Livingston and her All-State counterpart Malynda Lambros will hope to lead the Trojans back to the stage.

Early on, three teams appear to stand in their path – Hillsdale Academy, Grand Traverse Academy, and Maple City Glen Lake. Filtering for outgoing seniors, the three squads had the lowest returning scores of the D4 girls. The Lakers may move up to D3 (we’ll find out in the spring), but if in D4, their youthful combination of six girls that’ve run 22-flat or faster offers intrigue. For the Colts, no thought is needed, their returning depth is immediately apparent. Their runner-up squad had the best 5th, 6th, or 7th athlete in the field. Their “slowest” returner was Allie Miller at 21:24 (the 6th HA girl to come in), fast enough to be a scorer on every other D4 team. The Mustangs placed 5th here a few weeks back, 35 points out of second in this year’s tightly wound competition. Their top-five return, led by Amelia McKinney and offering some of the better depth outside of HA.

DIVISION THREE

November 1st was a dominating day, the Lansing Catholic girls victorious by the largest margin ever in D3. The presence of Frances Melinn will surely be missed, though the Cougars have the quickness necessary to make it three in a row. Depth is the major reason why, as even their seventh girl (Lindsey Ludwig) would’ve been a scorer for every other D3 team and as high as the 3rd girl for many top-10 teams.

In this way too early writing, it seems as if the podium has a high chance of remaining the same, Pewamo-Westphalia holding the second spot amongst the returning girls. The Pirates return their entire MIS varsity squad, all of those girls showing they’re capable of racing into the 20’s.

Given the strength of these two outfits, it’ll be a tough task getting onto the podium. However, relative to other divisions, the impact of a freshman in the D3/D4 range can be great. In other words, I wouldn’t be shocked (seriously, I haven’t even peered at middle school meets) if one of those teams in the 3rd-10th area vaults into podium consideration.

DIVISION TWO

The battle between Holland Christian and Otsego will seemingly extend into 2026. Between the Maroons and Bulldogs are eleven girls that raced at the D2 Finals faster than the 20-min. mark. Holland Christian is a bit more experienced, but that typically means an Otsego has more room to grow.

Can anyone else contend? Both Grand Rapids South Christian and Goodrich have a chance, the former similarly youthful to Otsego and the latter a year removed from a state title of their own. Grand Rapids Christian is also a thought, though the Eagles have much experience to replace (a transition they’ve traditionally handled well).

DIVISION ONE

The revelation of this early season that led to a state title, Ann Arbor Pioneer appears to be in prime position to repeat. The purple-clad ladies lose a valuable senior in Hana Boggess (and without her late-race surge, that title may not have occurred). However, they return everyone else, including two All-Staters in Keira Von Blon and Siena Klemmer and the venerable, record-setter, Natasza Dudek.

Here in 2025, AAP’s main competition was Romeo and the Bulldogs will surely miss their seniors – Natalia Guaresimo, Ella Goodsell, and Emmie Clor. Reese Rosbolt and Annie Hrabovsky will be among the better top-two’s in the state.

Four teams look to be in immediate contention for a podium spot – Hudsonville, Holland West Ottawa, Northville, and Ann Arbor Skyline. The four squads share some commonality, each team placing within the top-8 of this month’s State Finals and each consisting of six or more underclasswomen. Each team has their strength, Northville with the fastest returner, Skyline with perhaps the best top-two, Hudsonville strong through three, and West Ottawa develops girls into a top team year after year.
