Mesabi East Invitational Results

Our team got in late last night after a cold day at Giants Ridge and a long bus ride back.  There were 66 teams skiing this year and ours did great!! Results are:

Girls Varsity: 13th
Boys Varsity: 24th
Girls JV: 11th
Boys JV: 10th

Full team and individual results can be found HERE.

The Mesabi Daily News has an article, but it's mostly focusing on Range skiers.  Brainerd Dispatch wrote about our local skiers.  SkinnySki's recap is:

Crisp temperatures and near perfect conditions on the Minnesota State Meet courses provided a great test for the field of 950 skiers at the Mesabi East Invite at Giants Ridge Saturday. Anders Sonnesyn, Wayzata, strided to the boys top classical time, just three seconds ahead of Ely's Seth Prigge with Joe Rauzi, Duluth East, just another second back. The Northern girls dominated the classic field as Hannah Bettendorf, Proctor/Hermantown, Erika Fox, CEC, and Erin Bianco, Ely, filled out the podium. In the afternoon skate races, just three seconds separate the award winners as William Kerker, Mpls Southwest, finished first with Jack Christianson, Mounds View, second and Mitch Delong, Copper Country (MI) third. Amanda Kautzer, Benilde-St.Margarets, proved to be the queen of freestyle as she posted a victory margin over 38 seconds over Stillwater's Rana Kraftson, followed by Duluth East's Sophie Farrow. Team titles went to the Wayzata boys and Duluth East girls.
