10-28 - District - After losing their top 4 from 2016, the road back to State for the girls required a team effort and the Patriots delivered.

The Boys nipped Cedarcrest to take 3rd overall with Luke (10th), Rory (12th) and soph Alex Chin (19th) leading the return to State for the fifth straight year.
