At the end of the Jonathan Law cross country season, senior standout Liam Fedigan again went All-State. Fedigan has now gone All-State twice in a row and this year, he became the first ever Law boys cross country runner to compete at Regionals. Fedigan will attend Iona University next year where he will continue his academic and athletic careers. Iona is a Top 25 program in track that has produced 27 All-American cross country runners. In his time at Law, Fedigan was the leader of the cross country program and served as team captain for two years. Advocate Sports Editor Harrison Fisher interviewed Fedigan about the end of his high school cross country career.

Harrison Fisher: Did you achieve all of your goals this season?

Liam Fedigan: I accomplished all of my goals. I made it to New Englands, and more importantly, I feel like I demonstrated good leadership. I am confident I left a good mark on Law boys cross country and I am excited to be back for the meets next year. 

HF: How does it feel to go All-State for the second year in a row?

LF: I feel very excited and happy. I am very grateful first and foremost to everyone who helped me to get to this point. The bigger idea behind the words “All-State” is all the hard work and hours in the gym that I consistently put in. It is all working itself out.

HF: Were the results at the end of the season what you wanted?

LF: Yes they were. Everyone enjoyed the season and we got super close. That is what makes me most happy and most fulfilled.

HF: What was your favorite moment of the cross country season?

LF: My favorite moment was by far when other people PR’d and ran their best times. Every meet we had a few people run their best and that made me super happy. Lots of people put in hard work so it was nice to see that paying off for everyone. In terms of myself my favorite moment for me was making New Englands and getting that experience.

HF: Overall how do you think the season went?

LF: Overall, the season was a success. I know the coaches had a great time coaching and the runners had fun running. That was the goal and everyone played a part to make that happen.
