Willamette Race Results

We had our first wet weekend of the season, with rain during the afternoon road races on Saturday and a wet road for the crit on Sunday. The team took on a fairly flat road race course and a technical crit course full of corners.

Our home race is this coming weekend, so lots of prep work is being done this week! Check out our race flyer here.

Full results can be found here.

Right now it looks like we have upwards of 20 Whitman riders coming to the race this weekend so look for a VERY full results report after this weekend!

Love,
Molly


Willamette University Collegiate Race
March 16-17, 2013
Road Race:
      Men A: 
            Luke Ogden (junior): 9th: Luke is getting a lot more comfortable in the Men's A pack and stayed with them to come in with the main pack!
      Women A:
            Rachel Geiter (junior): 7th: Rachel stayed with the Women's A pack through an extremely wet road race! 
      Men B: 
            Whitney Griggs (senior): After getting drenched and solo TTing for awhile, Whitney made the smart decision to come in early. We would rather not let Whitney and his 0% body fat get sick from the cold and wet conditions. 
      Women B:
            Molly Blust (senior): 3rd
            Rose Baunach (freshman): 12th: Rose earned her first 5 points for the team! Woohoo!
     Men D:
            Kevin Wallin (freshman): 2nd: Kevin continued his absolute domination of the D field!
            Logan Thies (senior): 19th: Logan completed his first road race! 

TTT: 
     Cancelled due to rain, cold, and miserable conditions in general. Kevin wanted us to go out anyway. Don't worry - we didn't.

Crit:
     Men A: 
            Luke: 14th
     Women A:
           Rachel: 7th: Rachel went down on the last lap - she still finished the race and escaped with some road rash. Rachel is looking stronger and stronger in the women's A pack.     Men B:
            Whitney: 15th     Women B:
            Molly: 11th
            Rose: 13th

            Kevin: 1st
            Logan: 17th
