After coming up just shy of winning a second straight state title, the 1987 Luxemburg-Casco girls' cross country team was able to prevail once again.
During the drought, the Spartans reached the podium as a team in 1983 and Carrie Haen reached the summit as an individual a few years later. In 1987 it was a different Haen that led the charge with Leann Haen running a 12:15 on the 3200-meter course. All five scoring runners placed in the top 35 of team title contenders, with Tracy Wendricks (20th, 12:27), Ann Destiche (27th, 12:36) and Cleo Dorner (36th, 12:43) all breaking the 13-minute barrier. It would be the first of four Mark Annoye-led teams to win a state title.
