Loyola Nordic Ski (LNXC) Team
The Loyola Nordic Ski Team competed at OFSAA at Lakefield College School in the Kawarthas this week.
After a busy race season travelling throughout the province, our athletes came together with the best racers across Ontario to conquer the hilly terrain at Lakefield College.
The team’s top result was from our grade 9 Junior skier Francelina Dupont (not Frangelica! – a little dig at Chaplain Wayne!)
Despite a mid-race downhill collision with another skier which cost both racers a lot of time, Francelina managed to finish in 58th place in the province and was on-track to finish well within the top 50 prior to the collision.
Congratulations to all the snowseekers who blazed trails all season long and to Francelina for turning Nordic Skiing into a contact sport!
