The Redwolves traveled to MIS on Saturday represented by the Boys team and Ella Claus in the Michigan cross country championships. The boys' team has gone to the state finals in five of the last six years, an ongoing tradition for this team.

Gabe Manchester ran the fastest time for a male Clinton runner since Dominic Muessig in 2012 with a time of 16:37.6 finishing 51st overall. Austin Strand and Zach Taylor each broke 18 minutes for the first time running 17:52.0 and 17:56.6 respectively. Eric Ramsey ran a time of 18:09.7 while dealing with a minor injury. Ronan Stelzer had a season best time of 19:17.7 and Jacob Pizio a personal best time of 19:18.1. Peter Baker rounded out the boys' squad also with a personal best of 20:11.5. With five sophomores on the team, the tradition has a good chance of continuing next year.

Ella Claus continued the recent series of strong performances by female athletes in Clinton running a personal best of 20:55.7 finishing under 21 minutes for the first time. Ella is the 8th fastest runner in Clinton history and is now the third fastest freshman for Clinton.

The boys' team earned Academic All State status as a team and Gabe Manchester, Ronan Stelzer and Peter Baker all earned Individual Academic All State honors.
