Congratulations to our runners of the week!
Menomonee Falls Coaches Classic (Rotary Park)
Frosh/Soph Race - Joshua Truchon (So.) led the field coast to coast, clocking a personal record time of 16:53 to kick off the season. His race put him 70 seconds ahead of the next nearest finisher.
Junior/Senior Race - Liam Kelley (Jr.) kicked off his season by leading the junior/senior crew with a 17:33 and 9th overall finish. This was a near 50 second pr for Liam and a solid start to the season, and we see him running a lot faster in the coming meets.
Blood and Guts winners - Richard Eastham (Fr.)
Leighton Betz Invitational (Greenfield Park)
Varsity - Joshua Truchon (So.) was the top finisher for the Huskies again, running a more controlled pace this week and progressing his way up to an 8th place finish by the end. He helped teammates Liam and Brad to solid races as well.
Junior Varsity - Frank Bevsek (Fr.) improved a lot from his first race, and moved up to being our 3rd runner on JV this week. This is also the first time he scored for the team, moving from our 14th guy last week to being our 8th guy this week.
Blood and Guts winners - Jack Hutter (Fr.) , Cole Konczal (Fr.) (Cole's for hill workout)
South Milwaukee Rocket Invitational (Grant Park)
Varsity - Brad Glisczinski (Sr.) got out nicely, helping his teammates do the same. He has been a consistent and strong runner for us, finishing 15th overall helping us put 3 boys in the top 15 at the invitational!
Junior Varsity - Cole Orlowski (Fr.) had his "here I am" moment by dropping over 2 minutes and getting under 20 for the first time! His performance is the launch into what will be a very special running career for Cole. He was the top finisher on JV and will run his first varsity race at Angel next week.
Blood and Guts winners - Kenny Parliament (So.)
Angel Invitational (UW-Parkside)
Varsity - Cole Konczal (Fr,) ran in his 2nd varsity race and ran to another personal best on a hot day. The impressive part of his race was that he fell down at mile two, but didn't let that bother him, getting up and making no excuses in his efforts.
Junior Varsity - Joey Elliot (Jr.) made big progress this week, finishing as our 3rd guy on JV and helping the team take 8th overall! He ran a competitive race and has steadily improved throughout the year.
Blood and Guts winners - Joshua Truchon (So.)

Junior Varsity - Joseph Hertel (So.) is in his first season of cross country, and has had a very nice debut season! Joseph is working his way up further and further each week, running as our 2nd guy on JV this week and just missing the 19 minute barrier.
Blood and Guts Winners - Nick Burgess (Jr.)
Viking Invitational (McCarty Park)
Varsity - Brennan Kompas (So.) scored for the first time as a varsity runner, picking up some guys who had off days today. He ran similar in time to his Lourdes PR the week before, which was likely a faster course.
Junior Varsity - Cole Konczal (Fr.) ran aggressively and smart, continuing to test himself and not set any limits. He is back on varsity and wants to contribute in a big way there.
Blood and Guts Winners - Frank Bevsek (Fr.)
