This past Saturday the Jaguars attended the "Hexscapular" hosted by Massillon Jackson. This is a smaller meet, but the competition was quality as SJA took home first place over state ranked competition on a beautiful, cool morning.
SJA packed a great 1-2 punch with freshman Sofia Koons and senior Grace Rowell, who finished 2nd and 3rd overall. They both PR'd and moved up the all time list at SJA, with Koons' time of 18:52 moving her up to 6th all time and Rowell's time of 18:55 moving her to 7th all time.
Senior Maddie Jarc was the 3rd Jaguar and broke 20:00 for the first time ever completing the 5000 meter course in 19:49. The next 4 runners for SJA, Keira Leneghan ('24) 20:21, Avery Stives ('27) 20:31, Bridget Mullen ('25) 20:39, and Grace Harris ('25) 20:49 also ran personal best times boosting SJA to the best team performance of the season so far.
In all, 40 runners achieved their best time of the season, and in some cases by a minute or two. The team voted Sienna Stephens ('25) and Grace Harris ('25) athletes of the meet for their hard work, tremendous improvement, and great races.
Next week the team splits up with the top 7 runners attending the Midwest Catholic Meet in Cedarville while the rest of the team competes at the JB Firestone Invitational at Black River High School.
