Allied Strength Athlete Sam Groleau Named Winter Sport All-Star

Posted on by

Congratulations to Allied Strength Athlete Sam Groleau for being named Winter Sport All-Star by the Gloucester Times Sports Team. Sam has worked hard this winter to get stronger and keep his shoulders healthy during a tough swim season. Here is what the GDT had to say about him:

“The sophomore was a standout in both the 100 breaststroke and 100 backstroke, winning the NEC and earning first team All Conference status for his work in the former. Groleau competed in both events at the North Sectional Meet, scoring Gloucester’s lone point in the backstroke and earning a trip to the Division 1 State Meet, where he finished 16th.”

Sam has a bright swim career in front of him. He is already back at Allied Strength to prepare for next season.

Allied Strength athlete Mia Cromwell was named Winter Sport All-Star by the Gloucester Times Sports Team for her achievements in track & field:

Mia Cromwell, Manchester Essex track and field: The junior is the Manchester Essex program record holder in the 1,000m, and she broke her own record twice this season en route to All League honors. Cromwell won the CAL in the event and finished second at the Division 5 State Meet before turning in a top-15 finish in the event at the All-State Meet. She set a new program record in the 1,000m at both the Division 5 and All State meets.

Well deserved recognition for her achievements! She has been consistently working hard in the gym to get faster and stronger. Glad to see it is paying off!

It has been a busy few weeks for Allied Strength Athletes Mia Cromwell (Indoor Track) and Sam Groleau (Swimming). Both made it to All States in their respective sports and set new personal records in their events.

Sam placed 16th overall with a new personal record time of 1:03.21 in the 100 Yard Breaststroke as a Sophomore and today was named All Conference for his successes this season. He is already back to work at Allied Strength preparing for next season.

At the Indoor Track All States Meet on Saturday Mia placed 13th overall and set another personal record time in the 1000m (3:02.79) after just setting a previous best and breaking the Manchester-Essex High School record two weeks before. She is also be back in the gym this week to prepare for her Senior season of soccer in the fall and next year’s track season.

They both should be very proud of the work they put in and for showing up regularly to train in pursuit of their achievements. They deserve a lot of credit and praise for that. I can’t wait to see how they progress for next season.

The Gloucester Daily Times named Allied Strength Athlete Jade Cromwell one of its Fall Sports All-Stars. Since joining Allied Strength in April 2018 Jade has been a leader inside the gym and out on the field  with her hard work and positive attitude. She, along with her sister Mia and Claire O’Brien, trained throughout the summer to help Manchester-Essex Girls Varsity Soccer have their most successful in the program’s history. Jade is already back in the gym training in preparation for her colligate career.

Here is what the Gloucester Daily Times staff had to say about her:

Jade Cromwell, Manchester Essex soccer: The Hornets had a historic 2018 campaign, winning the CAL title for the first time in program history, and Cromwell was the leader of the team defense which allowed just a goal per game.

A starter on the back line since her freshman season and a three-time CAL All-Star, Cromwell was frequently tasked with defending the opponent’s top scorer, and she frequently shut them down.
