The fall sports season didn't treat the Wildcats' trophy case as well as last year, but that didn't stop Chisago Lakes from being inundated with individual awards for players.

Congratulations to the eighth grade boys traveling basketball team for winning the Consolation Championship at the Spring Lake Park Tournament last weekend.
State Tournament at St. Olaf CollegeWith the best runners in the state huddled around him on an unseasonably cozy November day at St. Olaf College in Northfield
North Branch 3, Columbia Heights 0Although the Vikings crushed Columbia Heights in their season finale, winning 25-2, 25-5, 25-17 over the overmatched Hylanders, the event was a huge success regardless of the outcome of the game.
With a few top flight runners heading into sections, the Chisago Lakes boys cross country team knew they had a good shot at qualifying two runners for the state tournament for the first time in a long while, and Luke McKenzie and Andy Magnuson didn't disappoint.

Despite a new year and a new team, Totino-Grace proved that once again they are just on another level than North Branch, and quite frankly every other team in the North Suburban Conference.
