Let the Cross Country Season Begin:
Opening Practice at Lakeville North

Eager to share in the excitement of today's official start to the high school cross country season, Down the Backstretch spent "opening day" with the Panthers of Lakeville North.

Below, in pictures, is how the long journey that is the harrier season began for one Minnesota program.
