team title.

MSHSL Class AA Champ Bethany Hasz won the girl's NXN individual 5K race in 17:06, her second course record following her MSHSL girl's course record from last Saturday.  MSHSL Class AA runner-up Joe Klecker finished third in the boy's NXN 5K race in 15:12.5.  Live results are HERE.

Wayzata boy's completed the sweep by defeating Edina for the team title( 92 to 127) with Klecker grabbing an individual spot for NXN Nationals.  Woodbury's Nick Wareham missed qualifying by one spot as he was sixth overall in 15:17.8.  He may still make the cut as runners can petition for entry into NXN Nationals if they are not on the top two Regional teams or top five non-team qualifiers in the individual competition.
