2010 TD Bank Eastern Cup Series Concludes with Lightning Fast Racing at Holderness

Summary: Plymouth, NH - The final day of Junior Olympic Qualifying almost always features fast-paced racing and today was no exception as the quick snow and short loop at Holderness School produced fast times and good points for those taking part.

J2 Boys race started the day and featured no surprises with Patrick Caldwell (Ford Sayre) in Jack Hegman's absence, winning the boys by a large margin.

The women's race J2 Corey Stock (CSU) continued her hot season with the overall women's victory over teammate Alex Jospe and Stratton Mountain School's Isabel Caldwell.

On the men's side Fred Bailey (Maine WSC) surprised many with a fast performance and the win for men, outskiing biathlete Russell Currier and Justin Freeman.

While the focus of the day was on Junior Olympic Team naming with forty-two spots up for grabs on the defending national champion New England team, TD Bank Eastern Cup champions were also crowned. Isabel Caldwell from Stratton Mountain School took over the title from her sister Sophie, securing the win with a first and third place finish this weekend. This marks the third straight year that a Caldwell sister has earned the title. Gage Fichter (Stratton) was third.

For the men, Ben Koons, in Whistler competing in the Olympics for New Zealand, had already secured the overall crown. Justin Freeman with a first and third place finish this weekend grabbed second, and Russell Currier with a third and second this weekend earned third.

Many thanks to the crew at Holderness School for pulling together a great day in very challenging conditions. The many hours of work it took to pull the course together is appreciated by all. Also, today's quick and accurate timing allowed for all standings to be calculated and announced quickly.

NENSA would like to also thank TD Bank for sponsoring this series and for all of the competitors, coaches, and parents who supported it by coming out to all four weekends at clubs across New England.

Note that 6 J1s (not counting autos) must be named to the team. This explains the somewhat strange looking final standings in the J1/OJ Boys list.
