4 PWHS CHARACTER COUNTS Girls Cross Country by Joe Adamak ATHLETE OF THE WEEK Fraser Toal Fraser Toal is the boys cross country athlete of the week. Fraser first came out for cross country as a sophomore. At that time it was evident that he had the natural talent to be a good runner. What has come to light over the past three seasons is his strong character. Fraser embodies all six pillars of character and has been a pleasure to work with as a coach. Fraser has been a member of the boys varsity CC team for the past two seasons, but this season he has stepped up his contributions to the team. Fraser's contributions began over the summer when he choose to meet with his teammates at 10:00 in the morning to run and put in the base work that will help them reach their team goals. Fraser also sacrificed a good paying job so that it would not get in the way of ability to focus on training and racing during the school year. Fraser has also increased his leadership at practice and in competitions. He has done an outstanding job of getting practice started on time and in keeping the underclassmen focused. Fraser has also done and outstanding job of welcoming the new members to the team and helping them to feel comfortable. Congratulations Fraser! The Girls finished tied for fourth place, one point out of third place, in the star studded 33 team field at the 49th annual Racine St. Catherine's Angel Invitational. Division One powerhouses DSHA and Brookfield Central placed first and second in the invitational. They were followed by the 2016 Division One third place finisher Kettle Moraine. The Pirates tied 2016 Division One state qualifier Menomonee Falls for 4th place. The Pirates were the only Division Two team to finish in the top five. Leading the way for the Pirates was senior Alexis Reichardt who finished 17th with a time of 20:43, in the 217 runner field. Alexis was followed by senior Payton Hurley (29th, 21:16) and freshman Mira Stimac (31st, 21:21). Rounding out the Pirates scoring were junior Jill Cavanaugh (44th, 21:45) and freshman Emma Goodman (46th, 21:46). All seven varsity runners finished in the top 65, Emma Meyer (64th, 22:14) and Clare Goodman (65th, 22:15). DSHA's Meghan Scott (the defending Division One state champion) was the overall race winner. Highlighting the JV race was a second place overall finish by freshman Bethany Stacey (21:54pr). 310 runners competed in the JV race. Other JV scorers were Katie Erlandson (13th, 22:47), Isa Shiflett (28th, 23:30), Emily Eckert (76th, 25:02pr) and Emma Strohl (108th, 26:01).
