The Lakeridge and Lake Oswego ski teams took on the challenging Reynolds Run at Ski Bowl last Saturday for the 2^nd race of the season.  Reynolds run is 1156 meters (3/4 mile) long with a steep sharp turn at the Waterfall slope. The course made for a tough Giant Slalom race despite the unseasonably warm weather and clear blue skies.  The Lake Oswego girls team finished first with strong runs by Sarah Tucker (4^th overall), Annie Wells (7^th) and Graeson Fish (8^th).  The LO boys team finished 3^rd with Travis Toal in 10^th place, Cooper Cheetham in 12^th and Alex Krenek in 17^th. 

The Lakeridge girls finished strong in 2^nd place with sophomore Maddie Lawhead finishing in 1^st place out of 39 Varsity skiers.  Lauren McIver and Nicole Humphreys contributed to the girls’ team success finishing in 11^th and 12^th places, respectively. 

The Lakeridge boys finished the race in 5^th place.  Jack Weary was 20^th, Jack Benziger  22^nd and Brandon Kuhnert  28^th with Christian Anderson contributing to the team total. 

The next race is a Giant Slalom race Saturday at Mt. Hood Meadows.
