Ari Rothschild and Jonah Hanig Earn Regional Medals
Saturday, October 23 2010 - IHSA 3A Cross Country Regional - Lake ForestAt the Lake Forest Regional senior Ari Rothschild ran another strong race. He went through the mile with Stevenson's Kevin Wood and Glenbrook North's Nick Hall. Ari tried to pull away during the second mile but was not able to. Kevin Wood then made a big move just before the two mile to put a gap on Rothschild and Hall. Ari was in third coming down the final stretch, but was able to close in a 65 for the final 400 to finish in 2nd (15:12.94) just a second behind Kevin Wood (15:11.5).
Sophomore Jonah Hanig had a break through race. He was with the chase pack early in the race and was in fifth place for most of the race. He had a strong kick down the final stretch to beat out a Lake Forest runner for the 5th place medal (15:54.97). Jonah was only 7 seconds behind 4th place.
Sophomore Emmett Smith had another solid race finishing in 11th place running 16:21.28.
After that, the 4th-7th runners for HP were too far back and did not have the strong finishes needed for the team to win Regionals. With the goal being to win Regionals, the team placed a disappointing second.
