JERSEY - Logan Wade recently completed one of the biggest races of his young career with a fourth-place overall finish in the Alton Invitational in a time of 17:37.23.
"Logan was our No. 2 last year as a freshman and he ran 17:12 at the Granite City Invitational and we are hoping he might break 17 minutes this season," Landon said. "He has the love of running like Ben Flowers, one of our top runners ever, had. If our freshman and sophomore kids stay together, we could have a really good team."
