PROJECTIONS

How Right/Wrong Was I?

10 for 12, with the usual suspects proving me wrong: Dexter and Cranbrook’s boys.

GOAT PERFORMANCES AT THE GOAT BARN

I will highlight one kid from each race for a little writeup. With Regionals and their survive and advance attitude, I’ll try to shout out someone who extended their season another week when they weren’t expected to, or contributed to a team that came in with a clutch performance. Of course, that leaves out many athletes who gave a great effort, and all of the athletes that were winners for toeing the line this weekend. Congrats to all.

Elijah Smith, Dexter

Some say the key to the Dreadnaughts advancement was their fresh, clean kit. Others say it was Elijah, out running for Dexter for the first time this year, breaking 17:00 for the second time on this tough Springfield Oaks track.

Ethan VandenHaute, Cranbrook-Kingswood

Not too many races are on Ethan’s portfolio, but one thing we can glean is his love for regional competition. Each of the past two years, he’s run a personal best on regional day. This year’s version was 70 seconds faster, but to be fair, it was only his second race of the year.

Becca van Lent, Ann Arbor Skyline

Becca’s season perfectly captures Skyline’s meteoric rise through Division 1 this season. She opened her career with four of five races above 21:00, including a 21:11 here at Holly in mid-September. Following that Holly race, she’s been sub-20 on five of six occasions, closing with 19:40 over the weekend. Dramatic improvement that only validates my thought that Skyline’s coaches get the most out of the talent they receive.

Ava Fahrenkopf, Linden

Word on the street is that Linden’s Eagles (and their coach) were a bit motivated by not being picked to win. Well, they surely ripped those projections to shreds. Capping off their strikingly low score was Ava, whose solid 21:16 was good for 20^th, her third straight top-20 finish at a regional race, leading to her third straight State Finals appearance.

How Right/Wrong Was I?

Six for six baby. 128/144 thus far.

WELL PLAYED AT WAGENER PARK

I will highlight one kid from each race for a little writeup. With Regionals and their survive and advance attitude, I’ll try to shout out someone who extended their season another week when they weren’t expected to, or contributed to a team that came in with a clutch performance. Of course, that leaves out many athletes who gave a great effort, and all of the athletes that were winners for toeing the line this weekend. Congrats to all.

Aran Harris, Ubly

Picked quite a day to have her fastest effort of the year. Her 21:49 on Saturday lowered her personal best by over 30 seconds. The first time in the 21’s gave Aran a 15^th place finish, her first All-Region ever (previous years she placed 43^rd, 46^th, and 27^th).

Aiden Fitchett, Dryden

Last year, he got his first taste of the 16’s, this year he came for the school record. Aiden’s 16:36 here at Wagener County Park was of course a personal best, but it also earned him his fourth trip to MIS (with four consecutive top-10’s here at Region 35).

How Right/Wrong Was I?

Thought I had the beat on this Up North area, but I guess not. One of my favorite small towns (Leland) spoiled the party. Falling a little below pace with 122 correct projections of 138 possibilities.

BUCKED DOWN

I will highlight one kid from each race for a little writeup. With Regionals and their survive and advance attitude, I’ll try to shout out someone who extended their season another week when they weren’t expected to, or contributed to a team that came in with a clutch performance. Of course, that leaves out many athletes who gave a great effort, and all of the athletes that were winners for toeing the line this weekend. Congrats to all.

Agustin Creamer, Leland

On their underdog 3^rd place finish, the Comets were led by Agustin. He’s been a Leland team member for three years, having run at two regionals over that time span. His 11^th place finish on Saturday was 10 spots better than his freshman year and a 30+ second personal best. For more context and comparison, he was 18:22 at the first NWC Jamboree here and then 17:11 over the weekend. Setting the tone up front surely had a positive effect on his teammates and helped gain the Comets another week of competing.

Emily Alaimo, Maple City Glen Lake

Talk about a torrential time drop. When Emily began her season and even through late-September, she was primarily a 24+ minute girl. Under the guidance of the Drowns, her speed increased and her confidence had to soar alongside it. First, slipping under 24:00 at Portage, then under 23:00 at Benzie, then a giant next step – 21:22 here.
