Ford Claims NorAm Overall crown, Terwiel takes Slalom Title
Despite challenging snow conditions, Canadian women were on top of the podium today
(Mar. 23) as the 2012 women’s NorAm Cup tour concluded with a slalom race in Mont-Sainte-Anne, Quebec.
World Cup regulars took the top two spots as Marie-Michele Gagnon won and Erin Mielzynski took second.
Mielzynski, who won her first World Cup slalom in Ofterschwang earlier this month, also took second place in the NorAm slalom standings for the season. American Hailey Duke rounded out today’s podium in third.
American Megan McJames, who took the NorAm Cup giant slalom title earlier this week, finished fourth.
After today’s race, Canadian Elli Terwiel who skis for the University of Vermont became the NorAm Cup slalom champion with 448 points. Duke finished ranked third, forty-two points behind Mielzynski.
American Julia Ford also solidified her first overall NorAm Cup title after finishing twelfth in today’s race. Ford finished second in the NorAm overall standings in each of the previous three years. Teammate Abby Ghent grabbed the second place standing, forty one points behind Ford. Fellow American McJames took third in the overall season standings.
The women will continue racing with a Canadian National Championship slalom on Sunday (Mar. 25) at Mont Sainte Anne.
