Collegiate Club Nationals - Spring 2022
The team took a trip to Lake Lanier, Georgia to compete in the USAT Collegiate Club Nationals! Nationals has not been held since 2019 so everyone was pumped!
There were a few races that happened on the two days that Nationals occurred including the Olympic, Draft Legal, and MTR (mixed team relay) races. Everyone on the team raced the Olympic distance triathlon. Our racer, Quinn Kneeland, secured a spot from the previous year to compete in the Draft Legal Sprint Triathlon (competetors were allowed to race the bike leg in a group ie. draft off of each other), and our MTR for this year was Zach Dahlseng, Grace Branchaw, Greg Shobert, and Nicole Schottler. Our team had a mix of new and experienced racers, and everyone put in 110% to the race. Lots of fun was had and great memories were made! Congrats to all of our racers! |
