After almost 10 years away from the podium, Luxemburg-Casco's girls cross country team finally got their name called last at the famed state cross country course in Wisconsin Rapids.
The girls ran a longer 4K course at this time and despite not having a single runner in the top 10 overall, it was the only team with all five of its scoring participants in the top 30. Abby Widmer led the way for the Spartans with a time of 15:29, good for 11th place overall. Stephanie Dantinne and Jessica Lemens finished back to back in 23rd and 24th place respectively with both breaking the 16-minute barrier. Six of its seven runners finished with a sub-17 minute time.
