Lots of high-school ski results are available via the CVU Nordic website.
Last Friday was one of the most exciting and anticipated races of the year for high school athletes: the annual Pursuit Race at the Range! MNC skiers really kicked major butt this year, with a SWEEP OF THE PODIUM on the girls side (Amy Bruce MMU, Abby Grab MMU and Chloe Lemmel-Hay Essex taking 1-2-3). Then Molly Larson (MMU) was 5th and Anna Franceschetti (CVU) really kicked butt and earned 7th overall! Some of our other Essex gals narrowly missed the top-30 but they are still relatively new to the sport (Kate Moino and Sarah Tallman). Other summer participants including Leslie Roberts (BFA) and Rachel Slimovitch (CVU) were amongst the top 30 overall.
On the guys’ side, Ethan John (Essex) went down in a crash at the start but came back for 2nd overall. Ethan Thibault (Colchester) had one of his best races of the year to get 6th and was in a3-way sprint for 4th. Casey Silk and Charlie Cobb were in the teens, Nigel Sarrazin and Ben Carnahan in teh low-20s, and perhaps performance of the day from Essex was Caleb Guziak –also soccer goalie extraordinnaire — in 20th.
Great job to all teh high school athletes so far this winter! There are so many athletes it is hard to keep track of everybody and I apologize if I missed some names. It is really fun to see all the hard work from the Summer and Fall earning athletes positions on their Varsity teams, helping them become Team Captains, and not to mention great results compared to athletes across the state! Go MNC!
