Reed City Cross Country and Track and Field standout, Paul Saladin, recently announced his commitment to run at Ferris State University. He will be studying land surveying at Ferris State University. 

“I reached out to Ferris early on in the recruiting process," Saladin said. "I went on a visit, fell in love with the team atmosphere, and the major of Land Surveying was offered.”

Paul ran for the Coyotes all four years of high school. One of the Coyotes’ most consistent performers over the last several years, his career is capped with a 16:14 in the 5000-meter run, 1:58 in the 800-meter run, and a 4:26 1600-meter race. He has been a central figure of the Reed City distance team. Paul has been one of the major standouts in the area and is now taking the next step.

“I really took it seriously during my sophomore year,” Saladin said.

With Paul Saladin, the Bulldogs add one of the area’s top runners. He adds a competitive edge to a promising Bulldog class over the next four years. Now for Reed City, Saladin’s commitment stands as a testament to both his own work ethic and the strength of the Coyotes’ distance tradition, as 'Speed City' sends another runner off to college.
