COACH BUSSAN’S COMMENTS: The boy’s squad had an outstanding effort starting with our junior varsity which set the tone, followed by a great match race between ourselves and 3 time defending champion Algona. With a mile to go in the varsity race, the outcome was still in doubt. At that point, Algona had its #2 and #3 runners ahead of our #2 and their #4 runner was ahead of our #4. The boys responded well to the challenge with a strong closing mile. We were able to break up their 2,3 combination and our #4 passed their #4 coming down the chute. We sealed the deal with our 5th and 6th runners separated themselves from Algona’s #5. It was a very determined and focused race by the entire boy’s squad. Senior Alex Lamp closed out his conference career with a runner-up finish after being 3rd a year ago. Senior Austin Elm had the best race of his career earning All Conference honors with a 7th place finish. Junior Andrew Laird rounded out our All Conference performances by finishing 10th. Austin was 19th a year ago and Andrew was 37th. Sophomores Jacob Clabaugh and Nick Thilges finished off our scoring with 12th and 17th places and Ethan Glenn ran well as our #6. Senior Mason Hedeen finished off the varsity effort with a strong closing final 400M for 41st. To defeat a 3 time championship team from Algona, which was led by one of the state’s outstanding runners in Ryan McMahon was a great accomplishment.
Our junior varsity ran extremely well as sophomore Lucas Poland and junior teammate Derek Turner battled to the wire with Derek edging Lucas for the title. Senior first time cross country athlete, Brad Tate, had a very strong close for 5th. Sophomore Cory Woodhouse earned a top 10 finish as well. Senior Colin Ryan closed out his career well with an 11th place finish.

COACH BUSSAN’S COMMENTS: Our girls gave a strong effort. Our goal was to finish in the top 4 which we accomplished by defeating a solid St. Edmond squad. We gave 3rd place Clear Lake a good run as they only finished 9 points ahead of us. They had beaten us by 90 points at Algona earlier in the year. The entire line-up showed great effort. Sophomore Morgan Moline entered the meet seeded 13th. She ran an outstanding race earning her first All Conference honors with an 8th place finish. She was 16th a year ago. Fellow sophomore Brenna Paukert competed well, as did senior Alicia Long. Megan Hughes continues to show improvement as she recovers from a midseason leg injury and was right behind Alicia. Freshman Gina Moline and sophomore Rachel Kauffman had very good races as our #5 and #6. Rachel was a team manager a year ago and thought she would give running a try this year. Sophomore Brittney Dodge continues to show great determination as she continues to compete despite a painful foot injury.
On the J.V. side, junior Nicole Heinrichs had her best race in finishing 5th. Freshman Morgan Shannon returned to competition after recovering from a stress fracture to finish 13th. Sophomores Erica Just and Ashley Meyers also ran very well for 15th and 16th. Our entire J.V. group competed very well throughout and took great pride in the program.
