Page 7, Top Article “Cotton’s state title leads area runners”
This article summarizes the performances of local area schools in the High School State Cross country meet held at Scioto Downs outside of Columbus, Ohio on November 6th, 2010. The main focus is of the Summit Country Day men’s cross country team and the St. Ursula women’s cross country team. What can be gained from this article is that Colin Cotton is a beast. He is a senior at SCDS and the captain of the team, leading them to a modest finish as a team with his gold medal in the division III race. Congrats Summit. They were a tough competitor for Mariemont’s boy’s team all year long.
St. Ursula also has a strong team with depth. The differential between their first runner and number five runner on their varsity squad is only two minutes and fifteen seconds. This is a team led by and eighth place finish by Sarah Mazzei, putting the team in eighth as well. Way to be girls.
What this article should focus on is Mariemont’s varsity squad. What a story. Drew Harris, Conor Coyan, Emmett Saulnier, and Nathan Kuck (all members of Mariemont’s varsity), are also members of the Regional Runner Up varsity soccer team. They not only run every Saturday in grueling 5k races, but they then play a physical soccer game that lasts an hour and twenty minutes. Drew Harris, the number seven man at the regional race, was the game saver in Mariemont’s tournament game against Dayton Christian. He is an athlete like Cincinnati has never seen before. Standing at six foot five, and weighing much more than I, he is truly a Mariemont WARRIOR. Even as an athlete, his grades are phenomenal. What a kid.
This article is well written, but should be longer. It discusses very important information about very successful teams, but it should have more on one of the most well-rounded teams in the city. Congratulations MHS.
Drew Harris is My Hero
