Over the past few meets a pattern has been emerging in the Beulah-Hazen cross country team. When the Miners run together they seem to achieve better times.

"It’s kind of a mob mentality. They are packing up and pushing each other," coach Bruce Wold explained. "It’s a little different to have someone from another town pass you. When it’s your little brother or another kid from Beulah passing you, that’s a little tougher to take. I think it helped the whole team score."
