Senior ♦ Golf

McCollum, the reigning Lower Peninsula Division 2 individual champion, won the Greater Muskegon Athletic Association individual title Sept. 22 for the third-straight season. She carded a 77 to also lead Reeths-Puffer to the team victory as the Rockets scored a 354 to outpace runner-up Montague by six strokes. 

After tying for 17th as a sophomore, McCollum won last year’s LPD2 Final by four strokes and is gearing up for her team’s Regional on Tuesday at Lincoln Golf Club in Muskegon. She will be continuing her golf career at the college level but has not publicly announced where at this time; she is interested in studying nursing or education at that next destination. She’ll also be returning to the track for the Rockets next spring after taking last season off but running primarily middle distance as a freshman and sophomore.

Performance of the Week: Riverview's Ewan Todd

January 26, 2024

Ewan Todd headshotEwan Todd ♦ Riverview
Sophomore ♦ Swimming

Todd swam a pair of Lower Peninsula Division 3 Finals-qualifying times in the 50 (22.44) and 100-yard (50.12) freestyles, and also swam on winning and Finals-qualifying 200 (1:34.09) and 400 freestyle (3.26) relays as Riverview won the Downriver Classic for the first time since 2018, edging 2023 champion Trenton for the title.

Todd’s time in the 50 was a personal best, and he should have plenty more opportunities to shine as this season continues and after reaching the Finals in two individual races and two relays as a freshman last year. He helped Riverview finish 21st as a team leading off the 10th-place 200 medley relay and finishing 16th in the 100 breaststroke, and also qualified for the meet in the 100 freestyle and as part of the 200 free relay.
