Freshman Ayla Gunn finished the scoring on am assist from fellow freshman Quinn Lang. Nora Goaley pitched in with 2 assists while Addisyn Dodge and Mariam Tacey each recorded 1 helper. Game 2 saw the Bobcats victorious again over Bad Axe 2-1. Once again limiting the opposition to very few looks at the goal. Ella Wallaker scored to put Glenn up 1-0 on an assist from Carli Johnson but soon after Bad Axe would take advantage of a strange restart off of an injury to make one of their 4 shots on goal count to tie the score. In the final 3 minutes Carli Johnson would find the back of the net off a pass from Freshman Maya Johnson to give the Bobcats the lead 2-1 and the win. Fiona Meisel would make 3 saves for victory in goal. The championship game was a rematch from 2 days before with Conference rival Freeland and the result would be the same.

BOBCATS SOFTBALL GETS THE SWEEP! With the Superintendent in attendance, we are able to get a sweep of Coleman! A team that swept us last year. Thank you Dr. Schmidt and everyone else for coming out to watch us today.

John Glenn Girls soccer stayed in the win column by defeating Freeland 2-0 at home on Thursday night, The high winds made the attack difficult at times but the Glenn defense continues to gel and limited Freeland chances while consistently putting the ball back into transition. The Bobcats started the scoring halfway through the first half when Maya Johnson's hard work along the touchline drew a foul and Ella Wallaker scored on the free kick from 30 yards out. The game would remain 1-0 for the rest of the half and the.majority of the second half until Brayde Smith made a run after a pinch from the defense and set up a quick counter to Bella Snyder who then slid a one touch pass to Wallaker who took a shot and buried it in the back of the net for her second goal. That would end the scoring. Keeper Fiona Meisel recorded her second consecutive shut out making 6 saves.

"JV Lady Bobcats Serve Up Wins in Rivalry Rumble with Garber" The John Glenn JV Lady Bobcats tennis team faced off against their crosstown rivals, the Garber Dukes, in a showdown that had more twists than a spaghetti noodle. Tensions were high, rackets were ready, and ponytails were flying. The Bobcats clawed their way to several impressive victories, but the highlight of the match came from the freshman doubles team of Giselle Coon and Harper Jackson. These two brought the drama, grit, and a whole lot of heart in a match that seemed to last longer than a family vacation car ride. At one point, they played a game with eleven deuce points. That’s right—eleven! It felt like it might never end, but somehow Giselle and Harper pulled off the win, pushing their match into an epic tiebreaker. Fans were gasping, teammates were cheering, and Coach Miller may have aged three years in that single game. “Giselle and Harper played their hearts out on that court tonight—as did every Lady Bobcat,” Coach Miller said, possibly while holding back tears of joy (or exhaustion). “I am so proud of how hard our JV team has worked this year.” Winners on the day were: Pearl Norton Evelyn Gruber Payton Schabel Maci Betzold Chelsie Voss Go Bobcats!!

We have 3 athletes up for Bay City Athlete of the week! Arrow VanWagoner Annabelle Werner, and Ella Wallaker ARROW VANWAGONER, JOHN GLENN One thing the John Glenn boys track and field team already knows is that VanWagoner can fly. The junior is setting a torrid pace in all of his events for the Bobcats. “Arrow has really become the kind of runner our staff believed he could be,” coach Matt Bolles said. “The kid is a tireless worker. Arrow demands you critique every practice run and also his long jumps. He is a perfectionist and works his butt off every day in practice to improve.” He has posted PRs of 11.36 in the 100 and 22.57 in the 200 and soared beyond the 20-foot milestone in long jump. He was a state qualifier in the 4x100 and 4x200 relays last year. ANNABELLE WERNER, JOHN GLENN Werner has already exhibited that this is going to be a big season for her with the John Glenn girls track and field team. The sophomore hit a milestone by clearing 10 feet in the pole vault at the Oiler Invite. “She has been a top performer in each of her individual events all season,” coach Ted Lind said. “She leads through her example and, as a sophomore, she’s bound to be a team leader for several more years.” Werner also cleared 5 feet in high jump and posted a PR of 13.59 in the 100 this spring. ELLA WALLAKER, JOHN GLENN When the John Glenn girls soccer team needed it most, Wallaker showed what true leadership is all about. Playing shorthanded due to injury and illness, the Bobcats saw their senior elevate her game and lead the way to five straight victories. “Wallaker was the leading voice in keeping things positive and focused and rallying the team to support each other and celebrate different people stepping up and changing positions to find success,” coach Matt Kraft said. In a three-game stretch, she played all 240 minutes, tallying five goals and five assists, including a hat trick in a 3-2 win over Freeland. Cast your votes for these Bobcats as often as you would like until the poll closes at 12:01 am on Friday May 2nd! https://www.mlive.com/highschoolsports/2025/04/honoring-key-performers-with-bay-city-athlete-of-the-week-for-april-29.html

Some happenings in track in the last week or so... Wednesday Jimmy McCrum took first place with a PR in high jump of 6ft in Frankenmuth Friday April 25th in Mt Pleasant the boys 4x200m relay team broke a school record that has stood since 1968 and they ran fast enough for an early qualifier for the State meet. 1:30.9 was the record from 1968 and on Friday the boys team of Cam Garcia, Che Arocha, Bradley Boyk and Arrow VanWagoner ran 1:30.11. Arrow VanWagoner also achieved an early qualifying mark for States with a 22.57 (he needed to be 22.60 or faster). So far these four boys would be the only that have qualified for states so far. We also anticipate the boys 4x100m relay team qualifying as well as Bradley in the individual 100m. We have a couple with solid opportunities to qualify in both long jump and high jump though early qualifying marks haven't been hit yet. Annabelle Werner is currently ranked 1st in the region in Pole Vault and likely to qualify though she hasn't hit the early qualifying mark yet. The girls 4x200m relay is currently ranked 5th in the region and they would need to finish 3rd or better at the regional meet to qualify. Journey Frasier also has an outside chance in both hurdle events. All in all Friday was a good meet. -Coach Lind Wednesday track has a home meet VS Alma at 4:00PM We have another qualifying opportunity this upcoming Friday at Western High School
