The North Branch girls' cross country team finished second among 18 complete teams at the Milaca Mega Meet Saturday, September 22. The Viking boys were 12th of 18 in the 5K boys' race.

"Today was an excellent day for all of our runners," said North Branch head coach Brian Hasleiet. "We had 10 individuals finish in the top 25 of their races, which is just excellent in a meet as large as the Mega Meet. There were 109 teams (boys, girls, varsity, JV and middle school) at this meet and all of our kids really competed very well."
