District Hardware!
The Edgewater District was more competitive this year than its been since the "super districts" nearly 10 years ago. With first place essentially unattainable for most teams, the goal was getting the second place trophy. It boiled down to SJA, Strongsville, North Royalton, and Shaker Hts for that spot.
Going in the team knew the order would probably be shaken up, but some big-time performances really turned heads. Most notably was the stand-out run by junior Taylor Whisler who made everyone proud with a big PR of 20:29. She finished as 4th girl on the team, her best ever for SJA. In front of her was Kristin Karn (6th, 19:23), Kelly Gallagher (11th, 19:58), and Jessica Sirchen (12th 20:00). Gabby Kreuz was the fifth scorer (27th, 20:40), Erin Gaffney (29th, 20:51), and Melissa Bresnahan (40th, 21:14) rounded things out.
The team wants to thank the parents and JV runners for their great support as well as the always appreciated fans like graduates Kenzie Bova, Jordan Daugherty, Sarah (and JJ) Welch, Katie Mone, not to mention Mr. and Mrs. Wolff who always come down for the district show. With all the comptition going on its a great reminder of the pride, tradition, and family atmosphere that this program has developed.
Next stop: JV runs at Walsh then Regionals at Glen Oak HS in Canton.
