From Coach Reeve: Congrats to the White Cloud Boys' Track and Field team, who won the MHSAA Division 4 Regional Championship in Brethren Saturday, easily outdistancing 2nd place Muskegon West Michigan Catholic by 35.5 points! The boys won 6 events and qualified 13 athletes in 12 out of 17 events for the MHSAA Division 4 State Finals in Hudsonville June 1st, which is the most in school history. Leading the charge was senior Noah Robinson. A day after signing to Muskegon Community College, Noah finished 1st in all four of his events. He started the day by winning the high jump in 6’5”. Next, he joined with Dalton Crawford, Jayden Robinson, and David Higgs to win the 4x200 meter relay in personal best time of 136.00. Two events later, Noah, Dalton, Jayden, and Alex Collard combined for another personal best time of 45.99 to take the victory in the 4x100 meter relay. Noah finished his day by coming home 1st in the 200 meter dash with a time of 23.62. Other victories for White Cloud included senior Lloyd Sebright-Johnson, who won the shot put by a full six feet with a throw of 47’6.75”. Sophomore Giuliano Venditti ran a personal best time of 43.65 to take first in the 300 hurdles. Lloyd followed up his shot put victory with a 2nd place finish in the discus with a personal best throw of 145’1”, while Giuliano also recorded a 2nd place finish in the 110 meter hurdles. His time of 16.99 was just 1/100 of a second off his personal best time of the season.\ As stated earlier, the Indians will be well-represented by 13 athletes in 12 events at the Division 4 State Finals June 1. In addition, those 13 athletes are invited to take part in their 12 events in the Meijer West Michigan All-Star Meet at Reeths Puffer High School. Here they will compete against the best track and field athletes in all divisions in the West Michigan area. Before participating in the MHSAA finals, White Cloud will take its entire team to Mt. Pleasant for the MITCA Division 4 Team State Championship Saturday, May 25. They will face 11 other division 4 schools in a unique event where each team may enter 3 individuals and one relay team in each event and all participants score. The Indians were division 4 state champions in the event in 2022, winning their 1st state championship in school history, and are hoping to do so again this year.
