Jordan Shearer, Trevor Kringlie, Weston Dobler, Shelby Schulz, Preston Lehmann and Zach Eider all picked up first-place finishes for the Packers. The team also had four second-place finishes and four third-place finishes.

Lehmann was also named the Eastern Dakota Conference’s Senior Athlete of the Year.
