Biathlon IBU Cup Trials

Lucy was home from college for about eight hours before she headed off to this three race series at Craftsbury. These trials were to pick one (possibly two) athletes to travel to Europe for the month of January to compete on the IBU circuit. 

Yesterday Lucy finished on the podium again, cleaning 70% of her targets. She finished third for the series. Ahead of her was Deedra, the top National Guard biathlete, who skied on the IBU circuit last year, and Chloe a Middlebury College student, who finished fourth last year at the World Junior Championships. Lucy who is comparatively new to biathlon was quite pleased with her results. 

Now Lucy can begin a well earned Christmas break.
