STATE MEET 

On Saturday, November 1st the Islanders Boys & Girls XC squads made their second combined appearance at the State Meet in program history.  This was the Boys 3rd appearance at the State Meet (1979, 2024) and the Girls 2nd appearance at the State Meet (2024). 

The girls team moved up in the ranks from last year to be the 13th fastest team in AA. 

5 Islanders set All-Time Personal Records & 1 Islander set a new Season Record:

• Hannah Steines (PR) 

• Cece Leitner (PR)

• Miles Wahlberg (PR)

• Tommy Halverson (PR)

• Aidric Axvig (PR)

• Roenn Ollison (SR)

To note: Libby was only 1 second off of her All-Time PR. 

Post-meet vibes were high at Elsie's afterwards.  It was super cool to have a lot of teammates come out to the course to support and also meet up with us afterwards to celebrate.  

What a way to end a season Team! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

We've got a squad of Boys headed out to NXR at Yankton Trail Park for one last XC race.  They'll compete on Sunday, November 9th in the Open 2 Invitational Race.  

TO-DO LIST: 

1. Turn in your uniform to the Athletic Office in a bag with your name on it (so I can keep track of who has turned there uniform in).  Your student account will be charged at the end of the calendar year if your uniform is NOT turned in. 

2. Complete your End of Season Surveys (parent/guardians AND student-athletes should get one sent out from the Activities Office)
