State of Maine Championships

Good showing for Bowdoin XC at the State of Maine Championships at Pineland Farms last Saturday. Both teams won, beating an array of DIII Maine teams, including Bates, Colby, USM, and others. For men, John was 3rd and Colman was 10th, while Courtney was 5th for women, narrowly missing 4th after a strong kick in the last 200 meters. These guys are super fit right now - should be interesting to see what happens when we get them back into ski training.

Saturday was my first time checking out the trails at Pineland - outstanding. Great venue for an XC race, and an even better venue for ski training, from what I've heard. Can't wait to try them out for myself.
