Minnesota Coach's Association XC Rankings

In one of the most revealing performances of the season, the North Shore boys squad battled the muddy ocean and steep hills at the Swain Invitational to pull off a stunning win over the likes of Mora and Esko, led by a second-place finish from senior Jake Paron. In return, they earned their fitop-12 ranking of the season at number 8, and they may have just made the Section 7A Championships the most interesting section in Class A.
