NYSEF Season Opener 2013 Results

Athletes from NYSEF, SLU, Peru Nordic Masters, Team HURT and others kicked off the 2013/14 race season at the Olympic Jumping Complex. 4 laps x 1.5 km made for a deceivingly hard race. It was the college athletes who came out on top of the podium, with Elizabeth Izzo (UNH) and Austin Meng (SLU) grabbing the victories.
