Winona's Carter Briggs and Mounds View's battled it out at St. Olaf last week.
Mounds View held strong and the top three teams stayed stable but lots of movement went down in the back half of the team table including three debuts on the season. Individually, the state awaits several of the states best posting their first 5k of the year, but plenty of standout performances shook up the numbers there as well.
