Garrett Heath 15:12 breaks 18-year-old state meet record. Somalian-led Marshall 78 wins 2A boys title. Lisa Waaninen 14:13 switches from soccer to win first title. Yetzer sisters lead Lakeville to 2A title. Staples-Motley sweeps Class A titles. Freshman Nikki Swensen 14:28 wins 1A.

The Minnesota State CC meet was run for the 12th consecutive year
at St. Olaf College in Northfield Mn., however the finish route of the
course was again modified for the second consecutive year; last year to
accomodate new construction and parking in the former finish area, and
again this year to correct what was widely recognized to be a long course
in '02.

2A Boys

The day's action opened with the AA boys 5k. Marshall HS, ranked 2nd going
in to the meet, won the team championship over runner-up Stillwater and
top-ranked Eden Prairie in third. Winona senior Garrett Heath repeated as
state champion in a state meet record time of 15:12.0, bettering the old
mark dating back to 1985. Marshall junior Yahya Iman was 5 seconds behind,
also bettering the old mark; he was followed by Stillwater senior Jake
Watson, Hopkins junior Mike Krisch, and Brainerd senior Justin Grunewald
rounding out the top 5. The Marshall scoring 5 averaged 15:57.9, also a new
state meet team record since the 5k was instituted as the new length in
1979.

2A Girls

Lisa Waananen

In the AA girls 4k, #2 ranked senior Lisa Waananen of Maple Grove HS is the
new state champion in 14:13.0 in the first season of cross for the former
soccer player. Lakeville sophomore Elizabeth Yetzer, Blaine junior Katie
Anderson, Minnetonka freshman Alison Liewen, and Park Cottage Grove junior
Marie Borner filled out the top 5 positions in sub-14:30 times. In the team
race, The Yetzer sisters led their Lakeville team in fulfilling their #1
ranking with a team championship, followed by 10th ranked Brainerd in an
outstanding effort for 2nd and Eden Prairie in 3rd. Only 11 points
seperated the top 3 in what proved to be the nail-biter of the day.
