St. Michael Boys Finish Eighth at State Finals!

The St. Michael Track & Field program had another excellent season last spring!

At the State Finals, our Boys team finished eighth, thanks to an extraordinary 4-podium performance from senior Sam Paga!  The day began with the 4×800 relay (Mac Moore, Zach Maendel, Russell Vandermus, Sam Paga) placing fourth and was followed by fourth, second, and fifth place finishes for Paga in the 1600, 800, and 3200 meter runs, respectively.  Maendel and Moore also qualified in individual events and our Ladies team made its State Finals debut by qualifying its 4×800 relay (Emma O’Neil, Sydney Feagan, Jane Manthei, Anna Zielinski) as Regional Champs!

The 2022 team was led by Head Coach Larry Rudnicki and Assistant Coaches Dr. Richard Brake, Isabella Deveau, and Shea Whitmore.
