The rest of the BSF Nordic Pro Team team and I  just returned from the Craftsbury Supertour in Vermont. Graham Houstma finished 4th in the skate sprint and 7th in the 25km skate. Graham remains 3rd in the national Supertour standings. Sarah Goble and Hannah Rudd were both top 10 in the 25km skate, finishing 5th and 8th respectively.

The big news of the week is Erin Bianco, Logan Diekmann, Reid Goble, and Graham Houtsma with represent team USA at the FIS World Cup in Canmore, Alberta Feb 9 - 13. (Selections for the following weekend in Minneapolis aren't final yet.)
