Cross Country is a team sport offered in the fall for both boys and girls. It is a sport that encourages both individual and team participation and can be a lifelong activity. This is a cooperative program between Cleveland, St. Clair, and Mankato Loyola. We have had this co-op in place since 2012. The Cross Country teams have had tremendous success over the years with eight conference championships since 2016, six State Meet appearances for the boys team since 2016, first-ever team state appearance for the girls team in 2023, and numerous All-State and Academic All-State individual winners since the co-op has been in place. Our athletes have fun, train hard, and run well. By bringing a positive attitude to practice daily, our athletes are set up to achieve their goals in this great sport.

The Minnesota River Bulldogs are a multi school co-op consisting of Cleveland, Saint Peter, TCU, Le Sueur-Henderson & Belle Plaine. We play out of the Le Sueur Community Center, and compete in the Big South Conference in Section 1A. Our goal is to learn how to work as a team to compete and achieve a common goal. Players are expected to be upstanding citizens both in and out of school. We hold our players to high expectations and expect them to follow through. As a member of the Bulldog hockey program we strive to teach these young men that there is more to life than being a good athlete.

The Minnesota State High School Clay Target League is a member of the USA High School Clay Target League, a division of the USA Clay Target League – a non-profit corporation. The League is the independent provider of clay target shooting sports as an extracurricular co-ed and adaptive activity for high schools and students in grades 6 through 12. The League's priorities are safety, fun, and marksmanship – in that order.

We believe that…

• Safe and responsible handling and storage of firearms and ammunition is the first priority.

• Everyone should have fun.

• Participation is a privilege and not a right.

• Sportsmanship needs to have a constant presence.

• Students should have an equal opportunity to participate.

• Ethical behavior, dignity and respect are expected.

• Participants will be chemically free.

• Collaborative relationships with schools and students create a positive experience.

• Academic priorities must come before participation.

• Adults must serve as a positive role model to students.

• The success of the team is more important than individual honors.

• Gun clubs are critical to the success of the League and are positive business leaders in their community.

• Compliance with school, community, gun club and League rules are essential for all participants.

• Shooting sports strengthens connections within families and communities for life.

• Everything the League does will always be in the best interest of the students.
