2011: Cheverus- Emily Durgin, Fiona Hendry, Shannon Conley

MDI- Isabel Erickson, Olivia Erickson, Waylon Henggeler (Lydia Dacorte, Caroline Driscoll)

This team was so ridiculously deep year that it was hard to cut it down to the top three, but no matter the outcome MDI usually had the lowest scoring trio in every meet this year. Remember, they lost front runner Maggie Painter in the post season and still put up dominating performances at Regional's and states. MDI steamrolled the competition throughout the season with wins including the Festival of Champions where they placed five runners in the top 36 overall. At the state meet, they were led Isabel Erickson's third place finish with Waylong Henggeler right behind her in fourth place. Freshmen Lydia Dacorte was their third runner that day as she placed sixth overall. With four of their top five coming back next fall, look for MDI to pursue its fourth straight Class B title.

The Summer and Marissa Award

Best Dynamic Duo in the State
Previous Winners
2012: Samantha Cox and Mary Szatkowski Bonny Eagle
2011: Brittany Bowman and Willow Parker Camden Hills





1. Kialeigh Marston and Mary Szatkowski

This is Szatkowski's second consecutive time winning the Summer and Marissa Award after a spectacular year on the trails. Marston and Szatkowski were the two vital components in leading Bonny Eagle towards their second straight Class A title. At the state meet, Marston was the individual victor running a time of 19:34.16 with Szatkowski twenty seconds back placing fourth in a time of 19:54.44. This tandem became the most feared duo in the SMAA this fall, and got even stronger when the post season rolled around. At the Western Regional Championships, the duo placed first and second with Marston coming out on top. They had the second and third fastest times of all classes that day. With Szatkowski graduating next spring, it will be Marston's time to shine as she looks to defend her Class A title.

And the winner is…

MDI- Maggie Painter, Olivia Erickson, Waylon Henggeler

Maggie Painter, Olivia Erickson and Waylon Henggeler helped lead MDI to their second straight state title this fall. While Painter served as MDI’s number one runner, it was Erickson and Henggeler that made MDI so remarkably deep. These runners all placed in the top 20 at the state meet led by Painter who placed 11^th running a time of 20:13.61. Henggeler was right on her heels placing 12^th (20:1784) while Erickson was close behind placing 19^th (20:42.39). With all three of these girls returning, look for MDI to make another run at the state title next year.
