The West Catholic Girls Cross Country Team brought home the hardware at the annual Michigan Catholic Invitational in Dewitt Saturday! A strong showing from the boys side, inspired the girls to do the same and they did just that! Seven of the girls ran in the 2 mile race. The top three medals all went to West Catholic athletes! Lily LeSarge, in her first ever high school race, ran a 14:03 and took 1st place, becoming the fourth consecutive West Catholic girl to Gold medal in that race! Abby Druelle impressed, follwing LeSarge in 2nd place running a 14:49, while Claire Smith took home the third place medal running a 15:22 on an injured foot! Anna Richmond took 7th place running a 16:55 while Brenna Olewnski took 10th place running a 17:39, both earning a top ten medal! Cassandra Sisk ran an 18:47 taking off more than a minute and a half from her previous race! Lauren Ignatoski came up right behind her running an 18:49! Then came the 10 team varsity St. Sebastian 5k, where Maggie Duba had herself a day running a 20:37 and taking 1st place in the race! Nathalie Strockis earned 10th place and ran a 22:52 on her birthday! Lainey Roth ran a 24:55 with Maggie Mckeiver pushing her to the end again running a 25:23! Eve Bacon finished off the varsity side running a 30:14! She had the determination to finish the race, even though she injured her leg mid-race! It was a good day with lots of hardware to inspire the girls into the next meet, and for the newer girls who are really getting a feel for the sport! Impressive effort today girls!
