  • Nathan Walker’s gone off to West Lafayette and Conor is ready to step into that void
  • Fremont is ready to prove that although they graduated a ton of talent, they’re still a top-tier D2 team
  • Conor has gotten it done in both the fall and spring, both in times and in big meets
  • His 15:30 at Bulldog Elite is the 4th fastest returning time
    • And the 209.1 is the 4th fastest returning rating
  • He’s always turned it up a notch when October hits, as a freshman he broke 17:00 for the first time at Portage, as a sophomore the same with a sub-16:00 at Portage
  • In track he showed his versatility, reaching down to 2:00 but also showing his strength with a 9:24
  • His experience being a part of winning teams will play a major role in the finishing stretch at MIS, where he’s sure to be in the mix
    • As I always say, winners win

  • Ava is the final incoming freshman off the board
  • She was purely dominant in 2020 (and heck, 2019 for that matter)
    • Her closest competition came in the Chargers Invite, where narrowly scooted to a 62 second victory
  • She’s been challenged a few times in her middle school career, finishing behind Arianne Olson a few times in 6th grade and coming in ahead of Helen Sachs in a 2019 race
  • Historically, her times hold up as well
    • Her 9:28 on the AHHC course is bested by Helen Sachs 9:22
    • Her 9:14 on Unity Christian’s course runs slightly behind Arianne Olson’s 12:03
    • Her 12:24 at Christian Schools (2 days after Chargers) is second only to Madelyn Frens 11:44
