Caden Livermore ♦ Grandville
Senior ♦ Cross Country

Livermore has been one of the state’s elite cross country runners for more than a year, and he proved it once again at Saturday’s Spartan Invitational at Michigan State, winning the “Elite” race in a time of 15:19.4, 12.2 seconds ahead of a field that included several of the state’s top returning runners from a year ago. 

The Grandville senior is coming off a third-place finish at last year’s Lower Peninsula Division 1 Final and at the Spartan finished just ahead of Kalamazoo Central’s Samuel Baker and Northville’s Brandon Cloud, who placed 22nd and second, respectively, at Michigan International Speedway last November. Livermore’s top time this season of 15:03.1 ranks fourth on the state’s top times list, all divisions included. He’s also coming off runner-up finishes in the 1,600 and as part of the 1,600 relay at this spring’s LPD1 Track & Field Finals, and after graduation he’ll be competing in both sports at Grand Valley State University, where he’s interested in studying kinesiology and business.

Horwath reached 500 career strikeouts during a six-inning no-hitter win over Comstock, finishing with 14 Ks total. She also had three singles and a double during her milestone strikeout game, and two more hits with six more strikeouts during another win over Comstock in the second game.

The junior pitcher opened this season with a pair of no-hitters against Eau Claire, and she has Bangor off to a 12-2 start after Thursday night's sweep of White Pigeon. Horvath also plays volleyball and basketball, and earned all-league honorable mention this winter in the Southwest 10 Conference.
