Performance of the Week: Marquette's Olive Krueger
February 21, 2025
Olive Krueger ♦ Marquette
Sophomore ♦ Swimming
Krueger led Marquette’s girls swimming & diving team to its fourth-straight Upper Peninsula Finals championship with wins in the 100 (57.42) and 500-yard freestyles (5:40.30) and swimming on first-place 200 medley (1:59.32) and 200 freestyle relays (1:46.51). Those victories brought her grand total at Finals to three individual and three relay titles over two seasons.
As a freshman, Krueger won the 100 free and swam on the championship 400 free relay. She improved in the 100 at this season’s Finals by more than a second over last year and had finished runner-up in the 500 as a freshman as well – with that double rare as the 100 is a sprint and the 500 the longest high school race.

Performance of the Week: Detroit Country Day's Charlotte Cook
June 12, 2026
Charlotte Cook ♦ Detroit Country Day
Sophomore ♦ Lacrosse
Cook has shown already to be more than capable of owning the biggest moments in high school lacrosse, scoring the game-winning goals for Country Day in the last two Division 2 Finals. On June 5, Cook found the net for the clinching score with 29 seconds to play in the Yellowjackets' 13-12 victory over East Grand Rapids. She finished the game with six goals total on 15 shots.
The all-state midfielder eclipsed 80 goals this season and 130 over her first two, and Country Day finished this spring 15-5 to move to a combined 32-8 during her two seasons in the program. Cook also plays field hockey and helped the Yellowjackets to a 15-1-1 record in the fall during the inaugural season of field hockey as an MHSAA-sponsored sport.
