Feb. 13-14, 2010
After a very strong showing at last weekend's Owl Creek Chase
Supertour in Aspen, Colorado, the Mesa State Nordic Ski Team is vying
for the top spots in the Rocky Mountain Conference rankings.
With his 6th place finish in Sunday's 21kilometer race from Snowmass
to Aspen, sophomore Tre Anastasia has moved to the #2 spot in the RMC
rankings. Anastasia finished 4th in Saturday's 10km classic race,
which was won by University of Wyoming's Evgeniy Panzhinskiy.
On the women's side, Mavs Brooke Bosman, Silvia Moelk and Kelsey
Follett also posted strong results, finishing 5th, 6th and 7th in
Saturday's 5km classic and 5th, 7th and 6th in Sunday's 21km skate.
Bosman is now ranked #5 in the conference, while Follett is #6 and
Swiss sensation Silvia Moelk is ranked #14, after finishing 7th in
Sunday's race.
The final events in the RMC series take place this weekend at the
University of Wyoming in Laramie. Saturday is a 10km skate, Sunday a
10km classic race.
In just its first year, Mesa State has qualified five athletes for
nationals, which will be held March 1-6 in Rumford, Maine.
