Chisago has depth like no other team in our conference. If one of our top racers has a problem with a run there is another racer capable of scoring high for us. Attached are the results -- you can see that some of our usual top ten racers had a problem in one of their runs. It happens - ski racing is a tough sport. Racers deal with many varying factors-- snow conditions, temperature, course set, equipment failure, volunteers. Racers have to focus to ski their fastest and cleanest race.

We have our last conference race at Trollhaugen next Thursday. You can always find more information on the team website https://sites.google.com/site/clalpineski/home

Keep supporting your racer and the team - they work hard at a tough sport.
