Now, and later
Western wrestling team in good shape for this season and beyond By Mike Moore Staff Writer Parma – Where the desire to compete now, in the conference and in the state tournament is, the Western wrestling team has pieces at the ready. Where there’s a desire to build the program up for the future, well, the same can be said. Needless to say, coach Greg Hoffman is in a good spot with his Panthers right now. “We’ve got a nice lineup, with some young kids and some great veteran leaders,” Hoffman said Thursday night. “We’ve had a lot to deal with this year, from health and injuries and so on. But we’re doing all right.” Western was 19-9 entering the weekend, and that comes with a lineup that features eight freshmen and sophomores. But Hoffman refused to even consider the word “rebuild.” “Because we came into the season with too high of expectations to look at it that way,” he explained. And many of those expectations had to do with some key guys at the top of the totem pole. Senior Chase Veydt placed second in the state a year…

SAU alum Nathan Martin U.S. Olympic Trials bound
SPRING ARBOR, Mich. – On February 13, former Spring Arbor University student-athlete Nathan Martin (’13 / Three Rivers, MI) will be competing against the nation’s top marathoners at the U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials in Los Angeles, California for a chance to represent his country at the 2016 Summer Olympics. Martin qualified for the trials back in October 2014 by hitting the U.S. Marathon “B” Qualifying Standard at the USA Track & Field Marathon Championships in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He finished sixth in the event with a time of 2:15:47 – narrowly missing the “A” standard of 2:15:00 which provides athletes funding support. The top three women and men in the trials are named to the U.S. Olympic Marathon team. The fourth finisher is considered the alternate, and is named to the team if one of the top three finishers withdraws before the race with injury. The upcoming U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials will mark just the third marathon Martin has run in his life. His first came at the 2013 NAIA Outdoor Track & Field National Championships where the Three Rivers, Michigan native finished the 26.2-mile race in 2:19:18. His time smashed the previous national record – which…
