Day one of the Grand Prix saw lots of MNC skiers at or near the top of the results page http://www.frostmountainnordic.org/gp14results.html.
DAY ONE: MNC skiers with first place finishes included Charles Martell, Quincy Massey-Bierman and Olivia Cuneo. The closest race was the Boys 13 yr old with Kai Richter having his best race of the year finishing 2nd to SMS skier Adam Witkowski. Only about 10 seconds separated 2nd thru 4th. Day two started with a classic prologue and finished with a skate pursuit race. In the girls 2003 Class MNC had a 1-2 finish as Quincy Massey-Bierman once again topped the field in both races and Camile took second. Olivia Cuneo took first in 2001 class for both the prologue and skate races rounding out a stellar final year as a BK skier.
DAY TWO: For the boys (2002) we saw Charles Martel take first in the prologue only to get edged out by a few seconds in a great race by Will Koch in the afternoon skate pursuit. Tim Cobb moved up from 5th in the prologue to take 3rd in the 2001 pursuit and Justin Schaaf in his first year of ski racing finished the morning in 8th and 9th in the pursuit. The boys 2000 class had the deepest field of very good skiers. In the morning classic prologue Greg Burt was 3rd, Kai Richter 7th and Conor Munns 8th. The afternoon skate pursuit saw Greg fall one position to 4th, Kai held his place for 7th and Conor was in 11th.
