Our best weekend yet for this season for the Nordic team all around. Continued strong performances by Leah along with Caroline and Amanda who continue to improve placed the women 5th in the 15K classic and 7th in the 5K free. For the men Adam, Steve, and Zach are posting the team points. Zach "Brett Farve" Wetherell who after announcing his retirement this summer has been steadily improving after his return 3 weeks ago. He came up big for the team with 13th place result in the 10K freestyle on Saturday. Andrew stuck around with some of the younger members of the team for the Eastern Cup on Sunday. Some great results from that as well from freshmen Bridget Shea-Gander, Eric Lustgarten, and Bill Prescott.
This past weekend was also quite possibly the most pleasant weekend weather wise I have ever experienced for UVM carnival. I think all the coaches were waiting the for the wind and other foul weather to blow in but we were treated to real bluebird days for Friday and Saturday and some incredible snow conditions as the crew at Trapps did a great job getting the course in order after the big snowstorm on Tuesday/Wednesday.
Onward to Oak Hill for Dartmouth Carnival next.
