🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ The 2025 Minden Invite was a HUGE success!
The Whippets had a great day with both varsity teams finishing 3rd overall against a loaded field.
Girls: 2 in the Top 15
Boys: 4 in the Top 12
Nearly every athlete ran a PR!
The Middle School Girls brought home the Team Championship with 4 runners in the Top 10. The Middle School Boys placed 2 in the Top 16.
⭐ The biggest win of the day, though, was MINDEN. The Invite was back to its tradition of excellence, featuring 8 varsity teams and 9 middle school teams.
Ranked teams in attendance:
Boys: Class B #6 GI Northwest, Class C #3 Gothenburg, #7 Minden, #8 Milford
Girls: #3 Adams Central, #4 Minden, #5 Gothenburg, #7 Milford
The performances were outstanding:
6 girls broke the 20-minute barrier
2 boys broke 16 minutes, highlighted by Tyler Hetz setting a new Minden Invite & Course Record in 15:49.19!
(That’s 54 years of history on this course!)
🎉 The Munchkin Races were a hit! Huge thanks to Minden’s Runza for treating every participant with free ice cream certificates. 🍦
🙏 A heartfelt thank-you to our amazing volunteers, parents, staff, and sponsors who made this meet possible:
Roger Hansen, Kylee Stepp, Joe Warner, Chris Shelton, Jason Strong, Ed Rowse, Dr. Widdifield, Jennifer Muller, Stephanie Strong, Annie Stott, Lori Rowley, Kevin Reed, Aaron Martin, Riley Swedberg (& two UNK helpers), Anisha Kuehn, Keaton Gracey, Angela Soelberg, Gara Hansen, Destiny McVay, Melissa Wheelock, Dawn Moyer, Ross Oberg, Angie & Doug Althouse, Todd & Becky Rehtus, Todd Suchsland, Rusty Rhynalds, the MPS Building & Grounds Crew… and many more.

Congratulations to our 2025 CLJMS Marching Band Drum Majors! The competition was tough this year and all of the students who auditioned did a fantastic job. 7 students auditioned by performing marching commands for their classmates and then the 7-8th grade band members voted for who they thought would be a great leader for the band.
