The Pentwater Falcons traveled to Fremont to compete in the Hill & Bale meet. The course has several hay bale obstacles set up to jump and climb over! This was our first time attending this meet and we will definitely be going back. It was challenging, but the kids had fun!
For the varsity boys, Wyatt Roberts was just out of reach of a medal placing 16th. On the varsity girls side, Bailee Case and Lauren Davis both earned a medal by placing 5th and 14th respectively.
The middle school team was on fire! Ayla Kokx earned a medal by placing 10th overall for the girls. New personal records were set by Carter VanDuinen, Jordy Miller, Colton Jorissen, Lauren Macher and Karoline Slotegraaf! Many of them took minutes off of their race times from Wednesday on a course with obstacles. Ben Jorissen was the first Falcon boy to finish in 30th place overall. It is exciting to see this young team improve and start to figure out the joys of cross country.
The Falcons will have a good training week as we don’t compete again until next Saturday at the Ludington Invitational hosted at West Shore Community College. Go Falcons!
The Falcon cross country team competed in Big Rapids for their first conference meet on Wednesday. The varsity team was led by Wyatt Roberts for the boys and Bailey Case for the girls. Wyatt was 13th overall and Bailee came in 4th.
For the middle school race, Skyler Compton was the top finisher for the Falcons coming in second overall. Ayla Kokx was the 2nd finisher for the team and placed 2nd overall for the girls. Both of these athletes are 6th graders, so even more impressive!
We compete next at the Fremont Hill & Bale race on Saturday. Go Falcons!
