OLD TOWN, Maine — For the first time this fall, the Caribou boys’ cross country team finished lower than first place in a meet.
At the 65th Old Town Sectional Invitational Saturday, the Vikings settled for third place out of 10 teams. Mount Desert Island was the meet champion by posting 52 points and Orono was second with 61. Caribou followed with 64, 52 points fewer than the fourth-place squad — the host Coyotes.
Opal Curless scored two unassisted goals, the second breaking a 1-1 tie 13 minutes into the second half, to lead Mount Desert Island to a 2-1 road victory Saturday over the Caribou Vikings.
The loss put an end to Caribou’s five-game winning streak. The Trojans improved to 4-2, while the Vikes fell to 5-3.
Curless had opened the scoring with 11:55 to play in the first half, but Sarah Doak knotted the score by tallying off a Maddie Doucette assist just 1:14 before intermission.
