VAHSMTB Race 3 at Miller School

The Woodberry Forest Mountain Bike Team headed to the Miller School of Albermarle yesterday to compete in race three of the Virginia High School Mountain Bike League.  Top rider for the tigers was Justin  who clawed his way to 6th place with an absolutely stellar performance.  Justin  (6) was then followed by Thomas (26) and Hines (28) who rounded out Woodberry's top three varsity finishes.  For the JV race Alex (16), Ryan (17) and Bennett (18) all finished in the top 20 after a strong two lap effort.

It is also worth mentioning that all 15 WFS boys finished this race!  Given the course length and difficulty this is a huge team victory. These guys are training hard and it really shows on race day.  Finishing times ranged from 1 hour and 5 min to 2 hours with the Varsity course around 16 miles with 2400' of climbing and the JV course 8 miles and 1200' of climbing.  Overall, a great race on a great course.

Full results are posted on the VAHSMTB Website
