Sprint Pictures

I will update this with more text in the coming days.

We had some great results in the Sprint Competition. Tyler Kornfield and Hilary Rich both narrowly missed the A Final and placed 9th and 7th in the Championship event. Five out of six of our girls advanced to the rounds. Four out of six of the boys advanced.
Lacy headed to the start. It was cold--the whole afternoon--and the entire sprint competition was processed in less than three hours. A very competitive field of local and international skiers battled on a lit track with firm tracks, quick corners and one large striding hill.
Alicia Rose headed into the first corner during qualification.
One of Tyler's heats. Notice the Swede going down at the front. Tyler fought like a bull the whole way, often leaving the start lanes near the back and battling his way through to finish strong.
On the home stretch against a Norwegian!
A well deserved award. K 74 Jump in the back round.
