Sign up for Possible Training Trip
The
team is looking into a training opportunity with a great lady
named Jill Troutner, who also happens to be on the US National
Guard Biathlon Team and an esteemed graduate of this fine institution
('95). She has helped the team out for the last three years
and would like to do so again. This is an excellent opportunity
to get some pointers and ask get your questions answered by someone
on one our nation's top Nordic teams. We would mostly likely
use the weekend of November 13th or 20th and remain here at West
Point with perhaps a day trip or two in the immediate area. Please
let Dave Dyrenforth know if you would be interested in this event
so he can coordinate with Jill and DCA.

Congratulations to Army skiers!
Congratulations to the Army skiers
at Nationals this year. USMA sent five male cadets and one
female cadet to Mammoth Mountain, CA, who represented the Academy
well. Despite difficulties acclimating to the 9,000 foot
elevation, the Army team did exceptionally well. Army managed
to fair quite well at the week long competition due to the team's
depth and training. Team highlights included race completion
by all Army skiers and the status All American earned by Dave
Dyrenforth, '00, A3. First year skier, Matt Kelley, '02,
C1 impressed the skiing community with his strong performance. Briah
Carey, '00, H2 had previously earned the All American status and
did an outstanding job representing the Army women. Also
helping Army were Ben Saine, '99, E4, Christian Liflander, '99,
A1, and team captain Bob Mahowald, '99, G2. To see how the
team faired at Nationals, go to the results page.
