NABC Pursuit & Mass Start

Walt closed out his biathlon career with a 2nd place finish in Saturday's pursuit and a 3rd in the mass start on Sunday. His skiing was strong throughout the weekend, as it has been all season, but a few slips on the range kept him from victory in either race. Nonetheless, a fine end to a great career. Over the last few years, Walt showed himself to be one of the best and most consistent biathletes in the country. This is particularly significant considering that the US has reached new heights in the sport this season. I'm pretty sad that we won't be seeing Walt on the national biathlon scene (or the EISA circuit) next year - it's been a thrill to be part of his journey. Congratulations Walt!
