Allison Dyrhaug and Annika Esselstrom ran for JV and finished with times of 28:49 and 35:58, respectively.
For the boys races, Carter Scholey placed 2nd overall, but 1st in the small schools division, and received a trophy, with a time of 16:09. Angelo Dohm received a ribbon for his 27th place finish with a time of 18:37. Jackson Scholey also received a ribbon for his 29th place finish with a time of 18:46. This was a season PR for Jackson.
