Patagonia Pursuit

Central Oregon ski race rescheduled

Patagonia Pursuit nordic ski race will take place Feb. 12 at Mt. Bachelor

Published: January 28. 2012 4:00AM PST

The 2012 Patagonia Pursuit nordic ski race, a benefit for the Bend-based Mt. Bachelor Sports Education Foundation, has been rescheduled.

Originally set for this Sunday, the annual race has been moved to Sunday, Feb. 12, the MBSEF confirmed Friday. Organizers said the date was changed to avoid conflict with other regional races.

The Patagonia Pursuit, staged at the Nordic Lodge at Mt. Bachelor ski area, follows a format featured in World Cup and Olympic racing. The race begins at 10 a.m. with a mass start classic leg and, after a triathlon-style transition, concludes with a skate leg. Racers age 15 and younger race 3-kilometer legs; age 16 and older race 6K legs.

Skiers can participate as an individual or as a member of a team.

Registration forms are available at the MBSEF office, 563 S.W. 13th St., Suite 201. For more information or to register online (for individual racers only), go to http://www.mbsef.org/NordicRaces/PatagoniaPursuit/.

 HOODOO — Mountain View posted boys and girls nordic ski wins Saturday at the Hoodoo Classic as both Cougar teams won the second Oregon Interscholastic Ski Racing Association nordic race of the season.

Mountain View's boys program scored 19 points to beat runner-up South Eugene (33 points) and third-place Sisters (46), while the Cougar girls tied Sisters with 33 points, but claimed top honors on a tiebreaker. (The tiebreaker in team standings is the No. 4 skier for each team but Sisters did not field a fourth skier, giving the Cougars the win.)

South Eugene's Trevor Merrifield won the boys 5,500-meter classic race in 21 minutes and 39 seconds, with Sisters skier Mason Calmettes finishing as the runner-up in 22:43. Imran Wolfenden (third place, 22:52), McKenna Hand (fourth, 23:04) and Sam King (sixth, 23:27) paced the Mountain View boys. The Cougars also won the boys 750-meter relay race, turning in a time of 8:37, easily besting second-place South Eugene (9:37).

On the same course in the girls individual classic race, Cougar senior Hayati Wolfenden took first in 24:38, while Sisters skiers Amity Calvin (second, 24:45) and Courtney Blust (fifth, 28:38) also posted top-five finishes. The Outlaws won the girls relay in 10:33, holding off Mountain View, which finished second in 11:02.

The OISRA nordic season continues Saturday at Willamette Pass Resort.
