Congratulations to BOTH teams on Placing 2nd overall today in the Section 7AA meet and BOTH ADVANCING to STATE!!!

Truly a race day to remember folks.  Girls worked their way around Cloquet’s Country Club Golf  course with one GOAL in mind: return to the state meet. Mission accomplished.  Individual medal winners include Phoebe Koski with a 3rd place finish and Molly Weberg placing 7th overall.  Excellent day Team!!!

On the Boys’ side…….they too, had unfinished business this year as they took the course.  After falling just short last year from advancing, this year the motivation was obvious.  Excellent running and teamwork got the job done.  Initially tying with Cloquet for 2nd place as a team, the tiebreaker went to the number 6 runner (Andrew Arthur).  East advances!!!!!!!!!!!!  Unbelievable effort from the entire team!!!  Individual medal winners include Kendall Hill earning a 5th place finish and Jonathan Laughlin with a 7th place finish.
