Michigan XC Speed Ratings

It’s now September and we’re hitting the meat of the schedule. The early season excitement has faded and teams are hitting the books, barreling toward the peak of their training, and frequently lacing up spikes. I just got back from a weekend of trail running out at Woodstock and wow is it great to be back out there. As such, no rating work was done over the weekend and you’ll get a ton of posts over the next few days. Next week, following the major meets of this weekend, will be our first batch of rankings.

As always, I’ll do my best to give a few shoutouts on these posts. Early in the season, these will be concentrated on names I don’t immediately recognize or athletes that are running much faster than I had anticipated. If someone’s given love, they probably deserve it, because there’s a ton of dedication that goes into finding those improvements. If you’re a coach/parent/teammate that feels someone deserves a mention, nicely e-mail/message me, and I’ll do my best to write some words about that person.

CRAZY FAST AT COUGAR FALCON

Jaclyn Charbauski, Forest Hills Northern

Coming into the fall, the Huskies were projected as a team capable of advancing to the State Finals. An effort like this, led by Charbauski, is a reason why. FHN placed six girls under 21:00, three of ‘em under 20:00. Jaclyn repeated what she did late last season, throwing down a significant leap into the low-19’s.

Mitchell Dunlap, Grand Rapids Catholic Central

A name that I feel hasn’t gotten its proper due on here. Mitchell slipped under 16:00 at Bluejay last year, he’s been there 3x already this fall. The latest and fastest one here, a 15:43 win in the Falcon division. He hasn’t just improved with time, moving from 7^th and 11^th in ’24 OK White competition to 2^nd in the first jamboree this time around.

*** = State Title Contender
** = Top Ten Contender
* = State Qualifying Contender
WAB = Weighted Average Before. A listing of the previous week’s Top 5 Average. Not a perfect comparison as a team may not run their five best runners. But a show of how one ran relative to expectation.

JACKSON JETPACKS

Jackson was the perfect avenue for kids to run fast. An early morning, firm terrain, no wind, and plenty of athletes looking to get after it.

I received a few requests for shoutouts, all deserved:

Aarav Kalantry, Ann Arbor Huron

Knocked off more than a minute from his season best to run 16:46, his first sub-17 ever.

Owen Dalebout, Salem

Who’d been on the cusp of the 16’s for awhile. Multiple efforts in the low-17’s over the past two seasons before finally breaking through today.

Myles Handel, Jenison

Who’d been waiting quite a time as well. 17:07 to close his sophomore year, 17:04 at MITCA at the close of last season, 17:00.7 at Riverside last week. His 16:50 at Sharp Park surely made the ride back to Grand Rapids a little easier.

For the Division 1 Boys, I feel like many teams have made their bid for the second spot on the podium, but none may be as impressive as Pioneer’s. Of course, they’ve got the frontrunners, one of the better 1-2 combos I’ve ever seen (shoutout Beckett Crooks on his first ever sub-15). Though it’s the emergence of someone like Thomas DeJesus, dropping nearly 2 minutes from his time here last year, that gives the Pioneers a real shot at hoisting a trophy come November.

Everyone DM’ed me asking to write about boys, I gotta spread the love to some girls such as:

Siene Muraszewski, Utica

Who had shown that potential in track, busted out a few PR’s thus far in cross, then pounced on a great opportunity here – moving welllll into the 18’s for the first time ever with an 18:17.

Ayda Skeels, Adrian

Running faster earlier in the season than she ever has. The Maple junior has been in the 18’s each of the past two years, but never this fast and not with as many weeks left in the season. In fact, she’d been above 19:00 in her previous two Jackson Invite efforts compared to her 18:24 here. Oh, first HS win too!

*** = State Title Contender
** = Top Ten Contender
* = State Qualifying Contender

WAB = Weighted Average Before. A listing of the previous week’s Top 5 Average. Not a perfect comparison as a team may not run their five best runners. But a show of how one ran relative to expectation.
