Top of the podium ...

Thus far, Lucy has had a couple of excellent time trial results with peer colleges. However, today's 1.3k skate sprint was the official start of the season, and she not only had the fastest qualifier, but took control of each of three subsequent heats. St. Lawrence University skipped the Eastern Cup races in northern Maine because the drive was too long, and they judged this race in Canada to be of comparable quality. Tomorrow is a 7.5k classic race.
