The Munising football team knows that they have a talented roster. They also know that with just 14 players on the squad, they really need to stay healthy if they’re to have a successful 2024 season.

It didn’t end in a championship, but Munising Baptist soccer head coach Hunter MacArthur really liked how his team’s season ended last fall. The Bobcats made a bit of an improbable run all the way to the Northern Lights League championship game, before coming up just a bit short to Big Bay de Noc.

The 2024-25 school year starts in just a few weeks which means that the Munising Mustang cross country program is ready to start another season. The varsity teams are coming off a successful 2023 campaign which saw the girls team place second and the boys team third at the UP Finals. This year’s girls squad finds itself returning all but two starters, and the boys only lost one to graduation. Fortunately, each team has some former runners coming back to replace them. This will bolster both teams chances to improve their finishes at the UP Finals.
