Photo from BC Alpine website: www.bcalpine.comThursday’s Nor-Am Cup schedule at Mont-Sainte-Anne, Quebec featured a super-G race for both men and women, as well as a super combined (super-G plus one slalom run) for the men. BC Ski Team’s Broderick Thompson (WMSC) took a very respectable 12th place finish in the super-G and added it to a stellar 5th place result in the slalom run to complete the super combined race in 5th position overall in a total of two minutes, 5.02 seconds.

“I was super happy with my super-G run this morning although I know I can be faster”, said Thompson. “Going into the slalom portion of the super-combined I had the mentality to go as hard as I could, while skiing smart in some tricky sections. I am really happy with my 5th place finish in the super-combined, as well as being top junior. 5th is my best Nor-Am finish to-date!”

“Speed has been going really well this season for Brod”, said men’s coach Nick Cooper. “He still has more in the tank, but it was a solid super-G run. It was really great to see him show everyone the slalom skiing we have seen all year in training, and throw down on a tricky set. It's awesome to see him get his second super-combined junior win of this season."




Photo from BC Alpine website: www.bcalpine.comCharley Field (WMSC) of the women's BC Ski Team promised to step it up today and she did just that. It was Field's turn to take her place in the top-10, completing the women's super-G in 7th position in 1:15.15.

"I am really happy about how everything turned out today", said Field. "I executed my game plan by staying solid on my outside ski and charging like crazy. The last couple weeks I have not been feeling like myself, so it was nice to finally lay down a solid run."

“It was great to see Charley get out of her own way today and punch one in there,” said women’s coach JP Daigneault. “This was her best-ever result in super-G, and we were all psyched to finally see her come back to the top of the hill to gather her stuff, all smiles and positive attitude!”

Tomorrow they'll switch it around and run a super-G for both genders and a super combined for the girls. Follow the action on LIVE TIMING
