NORFOLK- The towns of Yutan and Mead are separated by less than 10 miles. Because of that distance and the relatively same size of the schools, they also consider themselves rivals. On April 28, the two schools teamed up for a change and dominated the Class C State Journalism competition at Northeast Community College in Norfolk. Winning for an unprecedented seventh straight year in the team sweepstakes was Yutan with 596 points.
