Logan Langewisch is a junior on the cross country team. He is the son of Eric and Erin Langewisch. Logan is involved in a variety of activities at school. He is a member of the Regiment of Roughneck band, UIL academics, track and baseball teams as well as FFA. In FFA he participates in welding and Advocacy. When he is not representing White Oak, Logan likes to travel, play baseball, fish, and lift weights. When asked what he likes most about cross country Logan states, “it provided me with a new group of friends outside my normal bubble, which to be honest has changed my life in a way.” Logan describes himself as intelligent, disciplined, respectful, funny, and tall.I would add humble and creative. Logan started running in junior high with fellow teammate Nathan Watson. These two have become close friends through the years. If there is a zombie apocalypse Logan would want Kaleb Glenn on his team. Logan writes, “he is probably the most intelligent and would probably be the most under control in a serious situation.” Logan would like to have a conversation with Thomas Edison to convince him not to create the lightbulb. Logan would like to steal his idea and take credit for it, while declaring himself “Logan, creator of the lightbulb.” This is the out of the box thinking Logan brings to the group. Honestly, I am not always sure what Logan is going to say. There are moments of in depth wisdom and inspiration, and then there are moments when I wonder hmmm where are we going with this? This diversity of thought is also seen in his relationships with the people around him. He can interact well with a variety of personalities but he doesn’t take on the personality of the people around him. He is confident in who he is, but also humble and approachable. This unique combination draws people to him, and is a quality that allows him to be a good leader among his peers. This will be Logan’s third appearance at the Regional Cross Country meet in as many years. The previous years he has qualified as an individual. I am thrilled Logan gets to share this experience with his teammates this year. I know it is more important to him that they made it as a team.
