Masters Racing Update

By Adam Terko on 20 February, 2017 in Masters Blog

Ok MNC Masters, the time has come to buckle down, race hard and fight for Club and Zak Cup points in the spring races coming up!

NENSA has released current ranking for the Club Cup standings, and MNC is sitting in third place behind NWVT and CSU. The points difference may seem large right now but if anybody is up to the challenge it’s our deep and strong group…remember, Club points are also awarded based on participation so you can help Mansfield Nordic claim the Cup just by attending a race and having fun out there!

A big opportunity this weekend lies just to our southeast at the legendary Bogburn race! This quintessential New England event features a beautiful narrow course winding through the forest and is a favorite for many. Right now the race is ON and you can find updates on the race’s Facebook Page for more. The registration page is on SkiReg…MNC will be on hand with coaching and wax support so you can be sure to have some great boards for the event!

Stay tuned for possible carpool and schedule information.
