Presenting the all-county selections by the Mercer Track Coaches Association!
Plenty of Mercer County stars shined brightly on the biggest stage in the Garden State!
Mercer County sent over 80 individuals and relay teams who qualified from sectionals — plus everyone from the local non-public schools — to take on the rest of the state, and they represented the county well!
In the Times of Trenton’s boys XC postseason awards, the runner of the year was Shravan Pradeep (WW-P South). Pradeep talked about his dedication to never missing a day and his strategy of going out hard at the Meet of Champions. The team of the year was WW-P North. The coach of the year was Katie Reilly (WW-P South), who credited her team’s success to the runners’ love for the sport and to her fellow coach Stephanie Pegues’s work developing a strong training plan.
The Times’ All-Area team was Felix Farrugia (Princeton), Luke Ferrer (WW-P North), Tyler Hurst (Steinert), Agrim Jha (WW-P North), Tarun Kovoor (Notre Dame), Shravan Pradeep (WW-P South), and Burke Thompson (Hightstown).
The Trentonian has a great photo gallery from the CVC Championships, along with a write-up listing the top results on the day.
