(Carlos Gonzalez/The Minnesota Star Tribune) ADVERTISEMENT Class 2A: St. Peter runner wins St. Peter senior Keira Friedrich used to be a two-sport athlete — and that’s just counting the fall sports. Friedrich decided to give up soccer and concentrate on cross-country this fall, and the result was a Class 2A state title. She completed the course in 18:03. Minneapolis Southwest won the 2A state title, with Perham coming in second and Northfield third. Class 1A: St. John’s Prep junior climbs to the top St. John’s Prep junior Margaret Duffy won the 1A state title in 17:55.5 after finishing fourth last year. Audrey Brownell, who won the state title for Staples-Motley last year, finished second this time. New London-Spicer won a tiebreaker with St. Cloud Cathedral for the 1A team title; each scored 97 points.
