Performance of the Week: Muskegon Reeths-Puffer's Sophia McCollum
October 2, 2026
Sophia McCollum ♦ Muskegon Reeths-Puffer
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: Allen Park's Sophie Ramey
February 20, 2026
Sophie Ramey ♦ Allen Park
Senior ♦ Competitive Cheer
Ramey, a two-time Division 2 all-state first-team selection, was among top contributors as Allen Park clinched a repeat title in the Downriver League with a season-high three-round score of 796.10 points at the conference championship meet. The Jaguars won by just less than a point ahead of rival Gibraltar Carlson, clinching the league title with a season-best 323.6 in Round 3.
Allen Park remains ranked No. 1 statewide in Division 2 this week, while Carlson is No. 2 statewide, and those two programs have combined to win the last 18 Division 2 Finals championships with Allen Park finishing first the last two seasons. Ramey was a major part of both of those teams as well and is considering continuing to cheer after leaving Allen Park to attend Grand Valley State University, where she plans to study secondary education while majoring in mathematics and minoring in psychology.
