Sergeant Lena Wresinski of the Michigan State Police Paw Paw Post has been named the 2025 Michigan State Police Trooper of the Year. The MSP announced on Wednesday that Wresinski received the Gerstacker Trooper of the Year Award during a statewide ceremony in East Lansing. She was also recognized for her involvement in organizing a canine handler reunion at the Paw Paw Post, honoring those who have served since 1963. And I think that the Michigan State Police instills that in their troopers.”The MSP says Wresinski has voluntarily placed herself in the National Marrow Donation Program, donating blood and stem cells saving lives. She’s originally from Pennsylvania but moved to Holland, Michigan as a child and later went to Michigan State University.
