UU INVITATIONAL RESULTS - DAY 1
MIDWAY, Utah - The Montana State ski team sits in fifth place after the opening day of the Rocky Mountain Intercollegiate Ski Association season with a strong effort in the Nordic freestyle sprint races at Soldier Hollow on Sunday afternoon as part of the Utah Invitational.
The meet is in conjunction with the U.S. National Cross Country Championships, with RMISA scoring coming from the overall race results of the U.S. National Championship in which almost 400 racers competed.
Reed Godfrey had MSU's top performance. The junior from Canmore, Alberta, finished fifth overall. Godfrey opened the sprint with a clocking of 3:15.21 to qualify for the quarterfinal heat. In quarterfinal action, he notched 3:17.74, placing third.
"We had a slight delay due to temperatures far below zero at the Soldier Hollow Nordic Center," said MSU head Nordic coach Adam St. Pierre. "The conditions set up for a cold and fast skate sprint."
Also contributing for the Bobcats were Jack Conde, 12th, 3:21.75, Kai Meyers, 16th, 3:23.83, Joel Power, 18th, 3:24.01, and Eli Hermanson, 27th, 3:30.60.
Godfrey was the only Bobcat to advance out of the opening heat.
On the women's side, junior Aubrey Leclair led the Bobcats placing 14th in a time of 4:12.70. She was followed by Emma Albrecht, 15th, 4;14.78, Lily Murnane, 20th, 4:25.74, and Adrianna Proffitt, 22nd, 4:26.20.
After the first two events, Utah, the defending national champion, sits atop the team standings with 187 points. The Utes are followed by Alaska Anchorage 148, Colorado 148, Alaska Fairbanks 133, MSU 115, Denver 110 and Wyoming 46.
The UU Invitational will resume on Jan. 6 with the men's and women's classical races at Soldier Hollow.
