The Saline-Chelsea Ski Team was back at Mt Brighton Thursday night, this time to compete in giant slalom. The times from 2 courses were combined for a total time to determine place.
The girls team placed 5th out of 11 teams. Nikki Dillmann crossed the line with a combined time of 37.03, placing 19th overall. Katie McInnis and Ally Dillmann were in 28th and 29th respectively, with times of 38.87 and 39.06. Jaiden Saylon rounded out the scoring in 43rd place, with a time of 42.48.
All of the boys in the race struggled with the second course, which didn't hold up well throughout the night. With two of the three boys on the team falling, their times were off pace. Tanyr Krummenacher had two solid runs, placing 42nd with a combined time of 40.40.
"This is where a larger team becomes so important. When your top racers crash, you need that depth to help buoy the team performance," coach Laura Dillman said. "We have more depth on the girls side, and they're doing amazingly well for their first year. This will come as we continue to grow the team."
