Montana State senior Reed Godfrey posted MSU's top finish in the Nordic freestyle on Thursday morning at the 70th NCAA Skiing Championships at Mt. Hoevenberg in Lake Placid, N.Y.
Godfrey covered the 10-kilometer race in 24:20.6, finishing 17th overall.
Graduate transfer Florian Winker also scored for the Bobcat men, placing 30th in 24:49.5. Joe Davis of Alaska Fairbanks captured the men's freestyle title in 22:33.2.
Freshman Tilde Bångman led the MSU women in the 5k race, placing 23rd in a time of 14:01.3. Bångman was followed by Anna Pryce, 25th, 14:01.6, and Sophia Mazzoni, 30th, 14:07.9.
Utah's Novie McCabe won the women's freestyle crown in 12:46.3.
"Most of our skiers felt a little flat during the race," said MSU Head Nordic coach Adam St. Pierre. "Sometimes that happens with travel. Our flatness hindered our ability to race to our fitness. Flatness may have prevented us from having our best results today, but we are set up well for good races on Saturday in the 20km classic mass start competitions."
At the midway point of the championships, Colorado sits atop the team standings with 279.5 points. The Buffs are followed in the top 10 by Utah 263, Denver 230.5, Dartmouth 153.5, UAF 150, MSU 138, New Hampshire 122, Vermont 121, Middlebury 103, and Westminster 97.
The slalom races run on Friday afternoon at Whiteface Mountain.
