Senior Vincent Pollock is leaving his mark in the Fruitport cross country record book.
The only question that remains is where he will land on the list of the all-time fastest Trojans.
Pollock finished third individually at Saturday’s Sparta Invitational, with a time of 16:08. That gave him the seventh best time in school history, with a lot of competition still to come.
“He is running with confidence and is looking to move up on the Fruitport all-time leader board before the end of the season,” said Fruitport Coach Randy Johnson.

The Fruitport boys finished third in the team competition with 75 points. Forest Hills Eastern won with 28 points.
Junior Landon Johnson finished 10th with a personal best time of 17:32. Dylan Winskas came in 17th place (18:59), Enzo Aggoune was 24th (20:37) and Drew Powell was 29th (23:48).
The Fruitport girls finished fourth in their race with 84 points. Forest Hills Eastern took first place with 47.
Fruitport’s Valerie Pollock took fifth place individually with a time of 20:05. Peyhton Beardsley was 15th (21:03), Brynley Merkins placed 18th (21:09), Treasure Fleese was 22nd (21:44) and Zoe German was 24th (21:49).
“The girls team is showing me that they have a lot more to give,” Johnson said. “Most of the top seven runners took another 30 seconds to a minute off their best time. Our top five girls are under 22 (minutes) and are working to reach the low 21’s or 20 before regionals. This is a very competitive girls team, they want to improve and it shows.”
