The Bob Kiessling Invitational 2024 at Dream Park in Logan Township was a memorable day for the Wolverines!
Laura Sallade set the pace for the girls’ team, finishing 3rd with a NEW SCHOOL RECORD of 18:24.84, shattering her previous mark by an impressive 30 seconds! Adeline Edwards (7th) earned a medal and set a season record of 19:25.84. Both Laura and Adeline achieved US Milesplit Second Team Elite standards with their outstanding performances. Stella Blanchard (9th) also medaled, crushing her personal record by an astonishing 1 minute and 14 seconds. Gwen Mersereau (24th) and Stella Tobey (30th) ran strong races, helping secure a 2nd-place team finish, right behind top-ranked Paul VI.
The boys’ team had a phenomenal showing, with each runner achieving new season and personal bests. The Varsity squad, consisting of Micah Brox (18th), Henry Jepson (23rd), John David (34th), Aaron Szeliga (39th), Luke Young (43rd), and Keegan Mejias (53rd), showed their readiness for states. The boys took 5th place, an impressive result given that Caed and Elias were sidelined due to illness.
Congratulations to all our athletes—Go Wolverines!
