Simply the best
Kosmo admits he normally doesn't pay too much attention to high school sporting events that take place in that particular sport's offseason, whether its club or youth games or invitationals.
However, Kosmo found himself captivated by the Foot Locker National Cross Country championships in San Diego last weekend.
Rochester senior Megan Goethals, clearly the best in the state over the last two years, established herself as the best in the nation by rallying in the final meters to overtake a runner from Texas to win the title.
It's believed to be the first time a girls runner from Michigan won the event, so it was truly an incredible accomplishment.
Given that, Kosmo has to believe that Goethals might be one of the best high school athletes to ever come through Oakland County.
Yes, there have been Olympians and professional athletes who have played in the area, but Goethals has to rank right up there with them with what she's accomplished already.
Her legend might continue to grow from here as well, since the sky is the limit for her in future running endeavors.
— The Kosmo jinx strikes again. In a blog on Monday, the K-Man praised the start of the Lake Orion girls basketball team. So what did the Dragons go out and do? They lost their first game of the season on Tuesday at Rochester. Sorry, Dragons. Didn't think the power of the jinx was that strong
