The Berkshire League continued with another new format this week holding its first ever sprint race. There were many challenges including two fast corners, the ‘Headwall’, ice and dry windblown snow, but throughout the biggest challenge was the fierce competition. At the end, however, not much changed at the top of the leader board. In the girls’ race Mount Greylock once again showed their depth in the A Final with Laura Nolan, Mackenzie Hitchcock and Allegra Robertson all pushing the pace at the front for the first half of the race. On the ‘Headwall’, however, it was Lenox’s Sara Plager who took charge and did not let up until she crossed the line with the clear victory. Mount Greylock took the next four spots led by senior Camille Robertson. In the boys race Mount Greylock’s senior captains Patrick Joslin and Dylan Dethier outpaced the rest of the field finishing first and second respectively. Mount Greylock’s Jordan Tuboly overtook Waconah’s Mason Bushway and Kyle Dempsey for third to give the Mounties the indisputable victory.
