The Lady Mustangs were seventh out of eight teams.
“It was a much better meet than our first one,” Coach Jamie Extine said. “We had more teams to compete with. Our guys performed well in the cold.”
North Henderson edged North Buncombe 122-121 for the team title. Asheville was third with 98 points followed by Erwin (64), East Henderson (47), Mitchell (38), SM (31) and Avery (5).
