LP DIVISION 1 at Rockford
Top Regional scores: Grosse Pointe South 231, Oak Park 186, Rockford 160.71.
Oak Park – The sprinters and hurdlers who played major roles in last season’s championship run are back, making Oak Park a major favorite. Junior Anna Jefferson is coming off setting a meet record in the 400; she’s seeded third in that race (55.68) and third in the 200 (24.84). Junior Brianna Holloway is seeded third in the 100 hurdles (14.62) and first in the 300 (43.33), senior Kailsi Latta-Thompson is seeded seventh in the 100 hurdles (15.12) and 11th in the 300 (46.61), senior Jayla Fleming is fifth in the 800 (2:16.52) and sophomore Tamea McKelvy is seeded second in the 100 (12.23). Senior Ersula Farrow adds a top seed in the 800 (2:08.88) after winning that event in 2014, and all four relays also are seeded first: 400 (48.34), 800 (1:40.82), 1,600 (3:49.06) and 3,200 (9:06.01).
Northville – The reigning runner-up should be in contention again with a handful of standouts contending in multiple events. Senior Lauren Rodriguez is seeded second in the 100 hurdles (14.44) and seventh in the 300 (45.50), junior Chloe Abbott is second in the 400 (55.49) and fourth in the 200 (24.88) and junior Lexa Barrott is second in the 1,600 (4:58.69) and ninth in the 3,200 (10:55.16). The 1,600 relay (3:53.89) also is seeded second, and the 800 relay (1:42.11) is seeded third.
East Kentwood – The Falcons finished third last season in part because of multiple championships won by Sekayi Bracey; now a junior, she’s top-seeded in the 100 (12.17), 200 (24.61) and long jump (18-3). She also runs on the second-seeded 400 relay (48.88). Senior Briana Nelson could add big points in throws; she’s seeded third in the discus (127-6) and first in shot put (44-2).
Birmingham Seaholm’s Audrey Belf – One of the top distance runners in recent MHSAA history will try to finish her high school career with a repeat in the 3,200 (10:10.28). She could approach the record of 10:08.23 run by West Bloomfield’s Erin Finn two seasons ago.
Ann Arbor Skyline’s Charde Madoula-Bey – Reigning shot put champion and discus placer will throw both again as a junior and had the eighth-best shot put (39-4½) for LPD1 Regionals.
Rockford’s Sammy Cuneo – After finishing third in both the 100 and 200 last season as a junior, should challenge Bracey again in the 200 with the second seeded time (24.64) and has the top Regional time in the 400 (55.44).
Rockford’s Maegan McCarthy – Last season’s runner-up in the shot put and discus as a junior has the third-seeded shot put (42-4½) and top discus throw (141-9) heading into this weekend.
Flushing’s Bre Perry – Only a sophomore, Perry completed a Regional jump of 5-8 that was just an inch off the LPD1 Finals record.
Port Huron Northern’s Mackenzie Shell – Won pole vault last season as a junior and is a major favorite to repeat with her Regional vault this month nine inches higher than the current all-Finals record set in 2009.
LP DIVISION 2 at Zeeland
Top Regional scores: Warren Regina 180, Ortonville-Brandon 139, Grand Rapids South Christian 134.
Flint Southwestern – Fifth place but only 6.5 points off the lead last season, Southwestern has the scorers to push to the top. The 400 (49.50) and 800 (1:43.62) relays are seeded first, and senior Miaisha Blair runs on both and also has the sixth-seeded 200 time (26.16) and fourth-best long jump (17-5¼). Senior Mildrenae Young also runs on both of those relays and is seeded first in the 200 (25.83) and ninth in the 100 (12.65). Both were on the 400 team that won last season’s Final.
Grand Rapids South Christian – The Sailors have enough contributors to also do well in a low-scoring meet. The 1,600 relay is seeded first (3:59.38) and the 800 relay (1:46.69) sixth. Senior Alexis Miller could provide distance points, entering 10th in the 1,600 (5:16.78) and 11th in the 3,200 (11:43.33), while freshman Mariel Burxvoort is expected to do big things seeded second in the 300 (46.04) and seventh in the 100 hurdles (15.51). Junior Abbie Porter is seeded sixth in the 400 (59.15) and senior Laura Grasman is eighth in discus (118-9).
Lansing Waverly – Two relay championships placed Waverly second last season and only three points behind champion Remus Chippewa Hills. The 400 relay this season is seeded second (49.82) running three freshmen and a sophomore, and the 800 is seeded third (145.44) with the same group. Freshman Tra’chele Roberts is seeded fifth in the 200 (26.10) and the sophomore, Teaghan Thomas, is among those seeded 12th in high jump (5-2).
Battle Creek Harper Creek’s Charley Andrews – Reigning high jump champion is seeded second as a sophomore (5-6) and also ninth in the 800 (2:22.63) to go with running three relays.
Spring Lake’s Carlyn Arteaga – Last season’s 800 champ as a junior is seeded fourth in that race (2:20.36) and third in the 1,600 (5:08.47).
Mount Morris’ Gabriella Collins – Won long jump in 2014 by more than five inches and should score even more as a senior with the eighth seed in that event (17-1¼), second seed in the 100 hurdles (15.10) and top seed in the 300 (45.30).
Marine City’s Hannah Coverdill – Seeded only eighth in the 100 hurdles (15.59) and 12th in the 300 (47.30) but won the 300 and was fourth in the 100 as a sophomore at last season’s Final.
Carleton Airport’s Zoe Eby – After claiming last season’s 400 title by less than a second, Eby could add a few wins as a sophomore. She's seeded seventh in the 100 (12.64), third in the 200 (25.83), second in the 400 (58.21) and seventh in long jump (17-2½).
St. Johns’ Karrigan Smith – The Redwings senior set the 1,600 meet record last season at 4:51.53 and has the top seed time this weekend at 5:00.76. She’s also seeded second in the 800 (2:18.71).
East Grand Rapids' Kaela Theut – Last season’s 3,200 champion isn’t running that race, but is seeded third in the 800 (2:19.82) and sixth in the 1,600 (5:11.36).
LP DIVISION 3 at Comstock Park
Top Regional scores: Macomb Lutheran North 276, Pewamo-Westphalia 179, Frankenmuth 157.
Frankenmuth: The Eagles are competing for their third title in four seasons and fifth over seven led by one of last season’s Finals standouts – Sydney Bronner tied the LP Division 3 Final high jump record, won the 100 hurdles and ran on a record-setting 800 relay. She’s seeded second in the 100 hurdles (15.87), third in the 300 hurdles (47.48) and among those second in high jump (5-2). The 800 relay is seeded second (1:47.99) and the team’s 400 relay is second as well (51.49). Sarah Beulla, last season’s 200 runner-up, is seeded fifth in that race (26.51) and sixth in the 100 (12.95). There’s scoring to come from field events as well, with Stephanie Lambeth seeded first in pole vault (12-3) with a top Regional height three inches higher than the LP Division 3 Finals record, and Kerri Frahm seeded seventh in discus (114-11).
Macomb Lutheran North – After scoring big at its Regional, Lutheran North will pursue its first MHSAA title. Gina Patterson has been one of the state’s top distance runners over the last few seasons and is seeded first in the 3,200 (10:49.81). Nicole Ignasiak was fourth in shot put at last season’s Finals and is seeded third in that event (38-2½) and second in discus (119-6). Kristin Freeman is top-seeded in high jump (5-3) after finishing sixth last year, Emily Matkin is seventh in the 100 (12.98), and the 400 relay (51.55) is seeded third.
Pewamo-Westphalia – Brenna and Marissa Wirth played leading roles in last season’s runner-up finish and should be key again; Brenna is seeded third in the 100 (12.74), second in the 200 (26.04) and fifth in the 400 (59.41). Marissa is seventh in the 200 (26.72) and runs on the fifth-seeded 800 relay (1:49.36). Both run on the third-seeded 1,600 (4:09.34) relay.
Traverse City St. Francis’ Holly Bullough – Won the 800 and 1,600 and was second in the 400 at last season’s Division 4 Finals, and matches up well in Division 3 with the second-fastest times in the 800 (2:10.14) and 1,600 (4:54.79) and fourth-fastest in the 400 (59.21).
Manistee’s Annie Fuller – Won the 1,600 and 800 at last season’s Final, resetting her meet record in the latter, and her 1,600 seed time of 4:52.95 is nearly half a second faster than the LP Division 3 Finals record. Her 800 seed time of 2:09.02 would set that record again as well.
Adrian Madison’s Meagan Rosales – Placed in a relay last season, but enters this weekend with higher expectations thanks to top seeds in the 400 (56.5) and 300 hurdles (46.28).
Charlevoix’s Amber Way – Like Patterson and Fuller, Way has been one of the state’s top distance runners of late and owns the meet record in the 1,600 of 10:35.33. Her seed time of 11:24.21 is fifth.
Napoleon’s Kaniya Weatherspoon – Last season’s long jump champ also placed in the 200 and on two relays, and should repeat if not surpass that this weekend. Her long jump (16-11½) seeds her fourth in that event, while she’s third in the 400 (59.03) and 17th in the 200.
LP DIVISION 4 at Hudsonville Baldwin Middle School
Top Regional scores: Saugatuck 181, Deckerville 178.5, Fowler 178.
Pittsford – A talented group of sophomores could key Pittsford’s first championship run. Three provide value in field events – Maddie Clark is seeded second in discus (123-9), Katie Clement is third in pole vault (9-3) and Merenda Ayers is fourth in shot put (34-2½). Sophomore Jaycie Burger adds a sixth seed in the 800 (2:26.23) to go with senior Ruth Letherer's seven seeds in the 1,600 (5:26.78) and 3,200 (12:07.74). But the deciding points could come in the relays, where Pittsford has a second seed in the 800 (1:48.94), third in the 1,600 (4:14.19) and third in the 3,200 (10:07.34).
Reading – The reigning champion graduated meet record-holder Michelle Davis, but senior sister Jennifer Davis is seeded first in the 100 (12.59) and 200 (25.94) and third in the 400 (59.48). Freshman Baleigh Irelan is seeded second in the 100 hurdles (16.03) and fourth in the 300 (48.55), while junior Terasa Eidenier is sixth in the 1,600 (5:26.75) and fourth in the 800 (2:25.59), and freshman McKenzi Bassage is ninth in the 1,600 (5:26.81) and third in the 3,200 (11:54.19).
Fowler – The back-to-back champion in 2011 and 2012 was third last season but could move back into the top spot with strong relays and at least a pair of scoring individuals. The 1,600 relay is seeded first at 4:11.88 and the 400 is third at 52.16. Senior Allison Hufnagel runs on the 1,600 and also is among those seeded first in high jump (5-1) while running third in the 300 (48.30). Junior Julie Thelen is seeded eighth in the 400 (1:00.94) and also runs on the 1,600.
Mason County Eastern’s Jordan Goodman – Won the 100 last season as a freshman and is seeded fourth in that race (12.86), fourth in the 400 (1:00.19), 10th in the 200 (27.28) and 11th in long jump (15-6½).
Battle Creek St. Philip’s Ava Strenge – The Tigers sophomore won the LP Division 4 cross country title in the fall and is seeded first in the 3,200 (11:36.12) and second in the 1,600 (5:18.14) after taking second in both last season.
Birmingham Roeper’s Akwia Tilton – Placed in the long jump and 200 last season as a sophomore; she’s seeded first in the long jump (17-9), third in the 200 (26.63) and seventh in the 100 (13.10).
UP DIVISION 1 at Kingsford
Top Regional scores: Marquette 77, Negaunee 63, Houghton 52.5.
Marquette – The Redettes are seeking their fifth straight championship and are anchored by one of the top distance runners in Upper Peninsula history. Junior Lindsey Rudden (2:14.8) won her Regional 800 and 1,600 (5:06.20) after winning both last season. Reigning 3,200 champion Amber Huebner is a sophomore and won that race at her Regional in 11:50, and senior Hunter Viitala won the high jump (4-10) at her Regional after winning 300 hurdles at last season’s Final.
Negaunee – The runner-up in 2012 and 2013, Negaunee’s hopes may lie in the strength of its middle and distance runners. Ashley Tresseder won the Regional title in the 400 (1:03.25), while Aleda Johnson was first in the 800 (2:33.52) and Clara Johnson won the 1,600 (5:39.39) and 3,200 (12:50.83). Hailee Richards added a first in the discus (92-9½) after winning that event at last season’s Final.
Calumet’s Chelsea Jacques – The reigning 100 and 200 champion dominated those races at her Regional, winning the 100 (12.9) by more than half a second and the 200 (26.86) by nearly a full second.
Menominee’s Paiton Plutchak – Last season’s 100 hurdles champion by nearly half a second finished second in that race at her Regional (16.10) and fourth in the 200 (28.0).
Gladstone’s Jamie Snowaert – Last season’s pole vault champion finished only second at her Regional (8-6), but went 9-6 to win that 2014 title.
Calumet’s Hailey Wickstrom – Tied for third at her Regional with a high jump of 5-0 but won the Finals championship last season at the same height.
UP DIVISION 2 at Kingsford
Top Regionals scores: Ishpeming 94, Iron River West Iron County 71, Ishpeming Westwood 50.
Ishpeming – The Hematites dominated their Regional winning three field events, five individual races and all four relays. Marissa Maino placed third in shot put at last season’s Final and won shot put (33-8¼) and discus (91-2) at the Regional. Nassi Thomas also could dominate – she won the long jump (15-4), 200 (28.59) and 400 (14.33) at the Regional. Khora Swanson added wins in the 800 (2:36.31) and 1,600 (5:46.51).
Iron River West Iron County – Reigning 400 champion Emmy Kinner leads last season’s team runner-up, and she won that race (1:03.46), the 100 (13.59) and 200 (28.19) at the Regional.
Manistique’s Katie Davis – Finished third in pole vault at last year’s Final and is the top returning competitor in that event. She won her Regional in 8-6, last season’s winning Final height.
Ishpeming Westwood’s Katie Etelamaki – Placed in the top four in the 800, 1,600 and 3,200 at last season’s Final, and won the 1,600 (5:44.28) and 3,200 (12:15.38) in dominant fashion at her Regional.
Hancock’s Mary Jarvis – Swept the hurdles races in her Regional, winning the 100 in 17.13 and 300 in 50.12.
UP DIVISION 3 at Kingsford
Top Regional scores: Munising 70, Lake Linden-Hubbell 60.33, Stephenson 56.
Munsing – Seeking its first team championship since 2009, Munising can rely on distance ace Marissa Immel and pole vaulter Michaela Peramaki. Immel won the 1,600 (5:52.51) and tied for first in the 3,200 (14:03.17) at her Regional after taking second in the 1,600 and fourth in the 800 and 3,200 at last year’s Final, when Munising finished fifth as a team. Peramaki is the reigning pole vault Final champion and won that event at her Regional (9-0), where she also was third in long jump and fourth in both the 100 and 200.
Lake Linden-Hubbell – Carli Ongie claimed the team’s lone individual title in 2014, in the 800, and she’ll run for the repeat despite finishing second at her Regional (2:35.65). Lake Linden-Hubbell nearly doubled the field in winning that Regional despite not winning a race; the Lakes dominated field events, however, winning four with Sarah Audette finishing first in long jump (15-11), pole vault (9-6) and high jump (5-0). She was second in pole vault at last season’s Final.
Brimley’s Anne Archambeau – Won discus and finished second in shot put at the 2014 Final; won discus (101-11) and finished third in shot (33-0) at her Regional.
Engadine’s Autumn Arseneau – Reigning 200 champion finished second in that race at her Regional (29.56) but won the high jump (4-6) after taking third in that event at last season’s Final.
Cedarville’s Emma Bohn – Last season’s 1,600 champ and 3,200 runner-up will go for three titles again after taking second in the 1,600 (5:47.14) and 3,200 (12:47.61) and third in the 800 (2:41.0) at her Regional.
Brimley’s Kerri Chartrand – Reigning 100 hurdles champ and 300 runner-up could turn into a three-time champ after winning the 100 hurdles (16.78) and taking second in both the 300 (49.0) and in the 200 (28.8) at her Regional.
St. Ignace’s Autumn Orm – Won Division 2 long jump last season and her Division 3 Regional by more than 15 inches in 14-8½.
Carney-Nadeau’s Sara Sivula – Last season’s long jump champion will have a chance at three individual titles after finishing runner-up in both long jump (14-8½) and high jump (4-6) and fourth in the 200 (29.6) at her Regional.
St. Ignace’s Sarah Smith – Won Division 2 shot put and placed in discus and high jump last season, but will only throw shot this weekend after taking second (33-3) in that event at her Regional.
Ontonagon’s Lori Wardynski – Didn’t win a Regional title this time to go with last season’s Final championship in the 300 and runner-up finish in the 100 hurdles, but did finish second in four events – 100 hurdles (16.85), 100 dash (13.59), 300 hurdles (50.04) and high jump (4-10).

Norris Honoree Continues Setting Standards on Track, as Mentor
By
Geoff Kimmerly
MHSAA.com senior editor
May 19, 2021
A staple of Michigan High School Athletic Association postseason track & field events for more than three decades, Grand Rapids’ Lewis Clingman continues to serve as an easily-recognizable host of Regionals and Finals in that sport for teams from all over the Lower Peninsula each spring.
But his tireless service to school sports stretches across the entire school year and is rooted in 53 years as an MHSAA-registered game official, and those contributions are being celebrated with his selection for this year’s MHSAA Vern L. Norris Award.
The Norris Award is presented annually to a veteran official who has been active in a local officials association, has mentored other officials, and has been involved in officials’ education. It is named for Vern L. Norris, who served as executive director of the MHSAA from 1978-86 and was well-respected by officials on the state and national levels.
Clingman was to be honored with his Norris Award this month at the MHSAA’s 41st Officials’ Awards & Alumni Banquet. However, the banquet was canceled for the second-straight year due to safety concerns because of COVID-19. He instead will accept his award as part of a virtual banquet to be published on the MHSAA Website and social media feeds later this spring.
Clingman first registered as an MHSAA official for the 1968-69 school year, to work track & field, basketball, baseball and softball. He has registered for track & field throughout his 53-year officiating tenure, and added cross country during the 2009-10 school year. He has officiated nine cross country and four track & field MHSAA Finals.
But that just scratches the surface of his many contributions. He is noted by many as a mentor – 2018 Norris Award honoree Jill Baker-Cooley that year specifically recognized Clingman among those who assisted her in getting started in the avocation. He also has been a catalyst of the MHSAA Lower Peninsula Track & Field Finals’ two-decade run in the Grand Rapids area, where as a meet manager he continues to schedule and organize officials for all four locations of the season-ending series.
“I love being with the kids. It’s for the kids. And that’s why we’re here,” Clingman said. “The camaraderie with the other professionals that I’m with, and just watching the successes that go on. … But I love being with the kids. My kids are all gone; they’re all over the country, my grandkids are around the country. This is a great way to substitute (by serving) the kids who are here.
“If you’re in this for ego, you’re in the wrong business. And if you’re in this to make a lot of money and retire, you’re in the wrong business. When you think about it, 50 years of officiating, there’s a lot of (officials) who don’t last that long – they don’t because they’re not in the right business. But there’s a lot of people in this area, that are officiating, have been officiating, who will be (longtime officials) because they do it for the right reason.”
Clingman is a longtime member of the Association of Track Officials of Michigan (ATOM) and has received its Bob Bloomer Award, Bernie Abrams President’s Leadership Award, Art Jevert/Bruce Jacobs Distinguished Service Award, and three times its Past President’s Service Award. He also is a member of the West Michigan Officials Association.
Clingman also has served more than 40 years as an administrator, teacher and coach. He began his career at Holy Trinity Catholic School in Comstock Park, serving as middle school athletic director and basketball coach while also coaching football and track at Comstock Park High School. He served as head boys basketball and track coach and football assistant at Grand Rapids Kenowa Hills during the second half of the 1970s and after also serving as head basketball coach for five seasons at St. Joseph’s Prep in Grand Rapids.
He moved on to serve as athletic director at East Grand Rapids High School, then after a brief stint in the business world began a 20-year tenure teaching middle school for Grand Rapids Public Schools before retiring from GRPS in 2011. During that time he became the spring event manager at Houseman Field, where at its peak he hosted on average a combined nine high school and college track meets per week. He also during his time at GRPS served as an assistant coach in football, basketball and track at Grand Rapids Catholic Central. He joined the staff at Catholic Central seven years ago and continues to serve as event manager and assistant to the athletic director.
Clingman was added to the Grand Rapids Catholic Central Wall of Honor in 2016 and has received a GRPS service award.
“Lew has been someone who has given tirelessly, most of all of his time, over the years to really benefit not just officiating but school sports as a whole,” MHSAA Executive Director Mark Uyl said. “The work Lew has done, specifically recruiting and training track & field officials – providing for a sport we don’t think of very often as having those needs – and the work he’s done with ATOM has just been incredible. There’s been nobody more important to the track & field and cross country officiating community than Lew Clingman.”
Clingman graduated from Grand Rapids Catholic Central in 1965 and with bachelor’s degrees in history, physical education and English from Aquinas College in 1969. He earned a master’s in secondary administration from Michigan State University in 1978.
In addition to his continued service to Catholic Central, Clingman serves on the Aquinas Hall of Fame Committee and Alumni Association board, and on the Grand Rapids Public Schools committee for Houseman Field renovation. He also serves as an official for local Special Olympics events.
Clingman and his wife Cindy have been married 52 years. They have four children, 13 grandchildren and one great-grandchild.
