Athlete Spotlight-Finnegan

After becoming the first Hopkinton runner to win a sectional individual title, Finnegan finished a close third at the state Division 1 meet a week later, on Nov. 15. “Sean is the most determined runner we’ve ever had,” coach Laura McKenzie stated. “He set his sights on being one of the best in the state, and he proved it. … While he’s proud of those achievements, he’s never satisfied. He always wants more. That drive is what makes him who he is, and it’s why I have no doubt he’ll accomplish whatever he puts his mind to.”

Move In Style, sponsored by Custom Home Realty’s Laura Wauters, is a weekly Hopkinton Independent feature. Each week during the school year, we will highlight a different Hopkinton High School athlete, selected after consultation with HHS coaches.
