Our season officially finished off with our end-of-the-season banquet, where we come together with the Alpine team to celebrate... and more importantly, eat! We also gave out some awards, chose our captains for next year, and took some classic pics.  2016-2017 Captains: Shelby Ahrendt, Liza Dawley, Leif Hanson & Mitchell Miller 2015-2016 MVPs: Nora Gilbertson and Leif Hanson Matt Haugen Award: Bri Paulson  Banquet!  A beautiful spring rolled in, and us Nordies took to the roads, pools, trails and tracks.

But with some quick scrambling, Chris, Rebecca, Leif, and Mitchell were able to scrape together an exciting weekend of racing. Special thanks to Leif, who channeled his inner soccer mom to shuttle us to Stone Lake, WI in his stylish minivan. Also thanks to the Prokosch family for generously providing us with lodging (14 hours before we arrived) and food (you may want to pick up some more Kodiak Powercake mix). Saturday morning greeted us with cloudy skies and eye-paraly...
