Skiing Finishes Last in Vermont

On Saturday, the competition turned to giant slalom. Unlike slalom, the GS races consisted of two runs on the same course.

However, the results for both Harvard teams were no different from Friday. Both finished 11th out of the 11 qualifying teams--the Crimson men posted nine points, the women only six.

On the men's side, Dartmouth claimed first with 83 points, outpacing New Hampshire and UVM, by 13 and 16 points, respectively.

UVM claimed the top individual spot as Brandon Dyksterhouse blew away the competition with a combined time of 1:55.76. Dyksterhouse finished 1.53 seconds ahead of second-place Greg Blaisdell of UNH--an eternity in competitive ski racing.

The fastest Crimson man was junior Kenan Stern, who posted a time of 2:22.16, good enough for 53rd place.

"The course was set up very strangely," Ryan Myers said. "It was a fun course, but nonetheless challenging."

The results for the women's GS were nearly identical to that of the slalom.

UVM took top honors again with 92 points, beating second-place Dartmouth by 15 points.
