Coleman's Girls, Oconto Boys win at Lena C.C. Invite

Oconto's boys and Coleman's girls picked up wins at the Lena Cross Country Invite on Thursday.

In the boys' race, Oconto's Josh Woller paced the 28-runner field with a time of 18 minutes, 23 seconds. Kadin Baxter took fourth (19:43), Logan Allen was eighth (20:08), Bryton Fuller took 14th (21:10), Preston Williams was 15th (21:11) and Josh Maynard came in 16th (21:13).

The Coleman girls were victorious as a team, with Sara Seefeldt's third-place finish the best of the Cougar bunch (23:51). Kiersten Jensen took seventh (25:06), Desiree Nowak was 13th (27:02), Ember DeWitt came in 15th (27:05), Courtney DenRuyter was 16th (27:17) and Lauryn Seefeldt came in 23rd (28:27).

This was the Cougars' first meet of the season. Like most teams, they've rebuilt their schedule from scratch and managed to get six meets on the calendar for this fall.

"To say this year has been different would be a huge understatement," Coleman coach Becky Chaltry said. "I am very proud of my runners for their performances in the meet as I know it wasn't our "normal' first meet in Freedom like they're used to, but their attitudes are great and I have a wonderfully coachable team this year, so I am thankful for that."

The Goodman-Pembine boys took third, with three top-10 finishes from Kody Stahley in seventh (20:07), freshman Caleb Meissner in ninth (20:09) and Kevin Strietzel taking 10th (20:20).

Suring's girls took second as a team. Sophomore Olivia Noack paced the Eagles with a second-place finish off 22:11, Chantelle Vandenelzen took sixth (25:01) and Hailey Thompson was 11th (25:45). Georgia Gerndt was 18th (27:20) and Samantha Seibert came in 21st (27:52) to round out the Eagle finishers.

Oconto's girls were third. Jenessa Schneider took eighth (25:07), Josie Mireles was ninth (25:20), Lauryn Hendzel took 10th (25:34), Elizabeth Finger placed 14th (27:04), Ellie Finger took 19th (27:29) and Jadyn Floyd was 20th (27:40).

For Lena, Kennedy Marquardt was fifth overall (24:52), but the Wildcats did not qualify for a team score, with only four runners. Megan Shallow was 24th (28:38), Ruth Alberts took 32nd (34:35) and Samara VanArk came in 33rd (35:13

The Coleman Cougar boys' cross country team picked up a win in Crandon Tuesday night in a battle against several familiar opponents.

The Cougars topped Crivitz, Goodman-Pembine and Crandon in the team standings, with runners from Lena/St. Thomas Aquinas Academy, Florence, Laona/Wabeno and Three Lakes also taking part.

Coleman was led by Karson Casper, who took third of 40 runners (19:18.9). Fellow Cougars junior Alex Rennie was on his tail in fourth (20:27.20), John Nowak took seventh (21:00.9) and Ray Lemieux placed eighth (21:06.7). Coby DenRuyter took 26th (24:12.3) to round out the Coleman finishers.

For Crivitz, freshman Sam Lieuwen took second (18:44.90) in the field, behind only Laona/Wabeno's Matthew Seeber, with the senior finishing in 18 minutes, 6 seconds. For Crivitz, Joey Pickett was sixth (20:48.6), Jacob Behrendt placed 10th (21:27.9), Tegan Werner was 14th (22:13.3), Alec Grandaw was 20th (22:54.2), Chad Schroeder took 24th (23:44.7) and Kaiden Goltz was 31st (25:25.8).

Florence had one runner in the race, Andrew Hirn, who took 15th (22:13.5).

There were only two full girls' teams on the night, but there were 38 runners in the race, comparable to the boys' race.

Coleman's girls were second to Laona/Wabeno on the night. Sara Seefeldt led the way in third (23:54.1), Desiree Nowak took 13th (26:59.5), Kiersten Jensen was 16th (27:30.6), Ember Dewitt placed 18th (27:40.5), Courtney DeRuyter was 22nd (28:21.2) and Lauren Seefeldt was 26th (29:31.8).

"We had a pretty good night," Coleman coach Becky Chaltry said. "The course may have been a tad long as our times were a little slower, but it could've also been that the course was a lot of repeats so that can be mentally tough. Overall I was pleased with our performances."

There were more teams present in the race, but without five finishers they did not qualify for team scores.

Crivitz was led by a couple of top-10 finishes from Grace Allard in sixth (24:30.7) and Bella Galindo taking eighth (25:03.9). Abby Bauer took 19th (27:43.8) and Brook Bourn was 36th (25:29.9).
