While the world's collective attention is focused on the Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia, EISA racers set their sights on the 2014 Williams Carnival held at Prospect Mountain in Woodford, VT. UVM and Dartmouth continued to show strength, while the Bowdoin women made a strong statement on both days.
The UVM Carnival/Eastern Cup was held this weekend. One of the biggest events in the East, this year's event was marked by the loss of Dartmouth's Torin Tucker on Saturday. Despite the loss, the Nordic community rallied to support each other and carry on. Collegiate races were swept by Linda Danvind-Malm and Jorgen Grav, both of UVM.
Challenging courses, a return to cold winter weather and exciting competition were all present at the UNH Carnival this weekend, the second stop on the EISA collegiate racing circuit. Notable top-level guests made for increased competition in each race.
