Odds We Put Three In Top 10?!

With the sprint race in the books, the next day the Eph's fired off the first NCAA qualifier - a 5/10k individual start skate race.  Three laps around the 1.5k loop for the women, and six laps for the men.  The snow started early, and only got heavier.  The night before, Jason and I promised the team the fastest skis on the Eastern circuit, and I think we delivered.

Eli Hoenig led the Eph's with his 4th place finish in the men's 10k skate race! 
Elowyn Pfeiffer skied to 44th in her first distance Carnival race!

Evan Carr placed 41st in his first distance Carnival race!

Hannah Cole skied to 47th place.

Jack Schrupp "blacked-out at the top of the big climb every lap" for a 6th place!

Jordan Fields rounded out the trio that cracked the top ten with 10th place!

Captain Josh Harrington

Luke Costley comin' in HOT on his first lap!

The Men's team ended the weekend in 2nd place behind UVM!

Freshman Nick Gardner also skied an exceptional race for 17th place!

Olivia Meyerson was our second scorer in 39th place.

Rebecca Smith skiing through the stadium.

Sarah Becker rounded out our three scorers with a 40th place finish.

Tsaina Mahlen was less than a second behind Sarah, in 41st

Hannah Benson was our top scorer in 30th place!

HUGE THANKS to all the parents - Especially Sandra Meyerson and Nicole Harrington!! Our food table was amazing and all your hard work is greatly appreciated!

Thanks to Cathy Schen and Emily Benson for counting laps for the men! They'd still be doing laps if it wasn't for you!
Lastly, a big thanks to Peter Benson for filming all  the races, as well as Peter Hoenig for all the photos!

Super proud of our men and women! Looking forward to another weekend of racing at Quarry Road!!
