PTXC Journal: Kennedy Weisner, Elk Ct. Catholic - Entry #6 - Apr 21-Millrose x2-Penn Relays x3
Elk County Catholic senior Kennedy Weisner enters her final year of XC with a champion's resume. Her best year to date was last year as a junior when she won her first state cross country title - this one in the inaugural Class A Championship. Weisner also qualified for her first Foot Locker Nationals. During indoor, she was invited to her first Millrose Mile, and also to the Brooks PR meet, an elite gathering in the Northwest. She came back in outdoor to capture two state AA titles, winning the 800 and the 1600 - a very tough double. She began her final XC season at PTXC-5, setting a course record of 17:49. An injury hurt her chance to repeat in Class A in XC, and sidelined her until December. She on the Millrose Trials Mile and finished 2nd in the Millrose Games. This is her third year qualifying for the Penn Relaya Carnival Mile - taking 5th as a sophomore and 3rd as a junior.

A serious throwing arm injury took Emily Stauffer out of competition. But hey, she has two arms!
Emily Stauffer of Cocalico won the indoor shot put title as a freshman. And followed that up with a silver medal at the PIAA Outdoor Championships. But this winter just as she finished a string or PR's (indoor or outdoor), she injured her throwing arm. The injury required surgery. But instead of sitting back and just doing rehab and watching other compete, she asked, and received the OK to try the shot put from the left. And guess what? She is getting better all the time, and is hoping to place at District in May. PennTrackXC had a few questions for this remarkable and quite resilent, athlete.
