The 2018 Iowa High School Cross Country season ended Saturday afternoon with the annual state race at Fort Dodge’s Lakeside Municipal Golf Course. Three Adel-Desoto-Minburn sophomores qualified as individuals for the yearly Class 3A competition including Nate Mueller, Ethan Juergens, and Hannah Welch. Mueller made the Class 3A All-State team for a second straight season with a third-place finish at 16:12. Mount Pleasant senior Cody Mertens is the 2018 Class 3A individual champion with a run of 16:03. Juergens closed his second varsity cross country season with a 49th place finish at 17:27. Welch, a first-time state qualifier, placed 80th in her initial state-run with a time of 21:14. All three runners are expected to return as junior leaders next fall for head coach David Zwank.
