Racers do well at nats

Meg Cumming, Simon Bernard, and Ryan Moffat of the Big White Racers team competed at the event at Nakiska Mountain Resort. The event included super G, giant slalom, and slalom races.

"I'm really happy with the skiing of all our group," head coach Derek Trussler said. "All three showed good speed and competitive results against an extremely fast field."

On the first day of the race, Moffat started in 93rd position, but climbed the leader board to finish 22nd overall. The three competitors were unable to finish the first super G race the following day.

"It's reassuring to know that (Ryan) continues to be among the fastest for his age in the country," Trussler said.

Moffat finished 14th overall out of 84 racers on the third day of competition, despite falling on one of his runs. Cumming and Bernard did not finish the race.

On the final day, Cumming finished in ninth place in the women's slalom, while Moffat finished eighth in the men's slalom.

All three will be competing for the Keurig Cup at Red Mountain in Rossland next week.
