Only one boys cross country team on the peninsula has ever won the state championship and that came 20 years ago next fall.
Sturgeon Bay came away with the title with a score of 82, outpacing Amery's 115 and Shorewood's 122. This came with only one runner placing in the top 10 of qualified teams. Adam Aufdermauer ran a 16:53 to lead the Clippers, placing ninth out of qualified team runners and 25th overall. Three other runners would place in the top 50 overall with Tyler Herlache (16:56), Mike Yaniz (17:04), Dylan Roloff (17:10), and Aaron Kolterjahn (17:28) breaking 17:30 on the 5K course in Wisconsin Rapids.
The state title was sandwiched between two other state meet runs by the Clippers, coming in 12th in 2000 and 3rd in 2002.
