Quotes about nordic (12 Quotes)



    Adding Nordic skiing to our roster of sports is just one more way we are increasing the opportunities for Northland College students, as well as attracting new students. We've found the students who come to Northland thrive on outdoor sports, like skiing. Our location is a prime for skiers and we are really pleased to offer this competitive opportunity.

    Right now, we need to tear off the rear-view mirror and look forward to our final two events. The nice thing about Nordic is there's a lot of emotion in the race. We can still dig deep and rise above tonight's events to put together a strong performance for the win.

    The men's Nordic team had a strong showing today with a pair of top-10s. We are still a good bit behind Denver but the slalom is our strongest event and that is tomorrow. We need to control what we can control, and that is to ski well tomorrow. However, we're going to need some help from the other teams at the top to get back in contention.





    It's more of a direct competition and direct threat. While we have to learn how to compete for medals in those sports where we don't normally contend, such as the Nordic areas, we certainly have to take very seriously those threats to our current medals.

    It wasn't a very good day for us. However, we are not out of it yet. The slalom is our strongest event and hopefully the Nordic group can ski well tomorrow. I look for Denver and Colorado to make a move and hopefully we can stay with them.


    We lost the momentum be----fore we started. I think the momentum started shifting Thursday after the Nordic races. They got us out of a hole. Friday night, we improved our standings slightly. It was great to see the effort. All four days, we went through some anger, anxiety and joy at the end of it.
