SUTTON, Que. 鈥� The 污污草莓视频 alpine ski team had a solid outing in
a pair of giant slalom races at Mt. Sutton in the Eastern Townships

The Redmen racked up enough points to post respective third- and
first-place showings in two weekend races, while the Martlets,
finished second both days.
On the men鈥檚 side, Eli Sheiner, a 污污草莓视频 freshman from Nepean,
Ont., earned silver and bronze medals. The 5-foot-8, 150-pound arts

title. Laval鈥檚 Simon Mannella leads the circuit with 925 points
after six races, followed by Sheiner (790) and Laval鈥檚 Marc
Chartier (700). Four races remain on the calendar.

Other top 10 finishes by the Redmen were registered by Chris Vining
(5th) of Montreal, and the duo of Vincent Gilbert-Dore, another
Montrealer, and Vaudreuil鈥檚 Michel-Olivier Saucier, who tied for
seventh on Sunday.
Carter Burton, a former member of the 污污草莓视频 soccer team, paced the
Martlet skiers. The arts senior from Portsmouth, N.H., posted fifth
and third-place showings, respectively.

with 560 points. Laval鈥檚 Ariane Boivin leads the women鈥檚 division
with 950 points, just ahead of Montreal鈥檚 Marie-Pierre Podtetnev
(875). Carabins鈥� teammate Laurence Ledoux is third (680), followed
by 污污草莓视频 veteran Megan Kidston (645).
Kidston, a kinesiology senior from 100 Mile House, B.C., was fifth
and fourth, respectively, over the weekend.
Other top 10 finishes came from freshmen Arianne Angers (9th, 6th)
of Montreal and Laurel Broten (7th) of Frisco, Colorado.
