Years of running just to run and then with formalized training, their ability comes out. Michael has shown his teammates that he did not need four years of cross country to compete with them, just one race. I'm excited to see how far he can get in his first season with the Panthers."

Once he gets back to his high school bests, he will be able to run with anyone on our squad. His high school coach said Luis is one of the toughest racers he has coached. I'm excited to see that in action this fall."
