and rescheduled ski meets, the local teams were finally able to hold
their first LMSC race of the season January 15, 2007. Benzie Central
hosted this event at Crystal Mt. Emily Harwell stepped up to the task,
finishing 6th in the Girls GS event with times of 23:81 and :23.71 for a
combined effort of :47.52. Monika Higley looks as if she is in
contention for Conference honors as well, if she continues with her
racing quality this year. Monika raced a solid race ,clocking times of
:25.24 and 24.52 respectively for a combined time of :49.76 and 10th
position. Kelli Waligorski was right there as well , placing 14th with
times of :26.90 and :27.40 for a combined of :54.30. New team member,
Diamond Kimpel did a great job, while nursing an injured knee, placing
21st with times of :34.36 and :31.63. Diamond did a super job of shaving
time off on her second run. |
Emily Harwell had some
problems on her second run, placing her 18th in this event, however, it
should be noted that her first run clocked in at :28.46 for 3rd
position. Her second run gave her some problems and a clock time of
:48.88 dropping her down to 18th for this race. Diamond Kimpel's
effforts of :38.02 and :39.33 placed her 19th. All in all not a bad
first race for the OHS/Brethren/Bear Lake Girls team. Katie Bramble of
Manistee won both of the Girl's events. The boy's team is coming right along and Brethren's Eric Somsel racing with OHS tied for 16th with a Bellaire racer with his times of :22.09 and :22.32 in Giant Slalom. Donny Olson placed 25th with his runs of :25.56 and :25.92. No other boys for our team started this event.
