Fans of the Middlebury College nordic ski team who have been waiting for Simi Hamilton's return from Europe were not disappointed this weekend at the Dartmouth carnival. On Friday, the MC senior won the classic race by more than twenty seconds. On Saturday, he took the skate race. Frost Mountain coach, Tim Reynolds, was right behind Simi, posting a dominating third place finish in the skate. The very consistently great Patrick Johnson and the up-and-coming Chase Marston were also right at the front of the pack, joined by a soon-to-be-pink-haired Mike Mommsen in the classic race. On the girls' side, freshman phenom Elise Moody-Roberts continued to crush the competition and Kate Barton (aka Katie Barton of the LAX team) had incredibly fast feet. By the end, the MC men had garnered a first place win, and the women a second, with the combined nordic and alpine taking second overall. Come out to cheer on the whole squad this coming weekend at the Middlebury carnival. Results here.
