OTTAWA -- The second day of action at the Nordic Skiing OUA Championships yielded another pair of gold medal finishes and a bronze one as well for the Lakehead Thunderwolves.
Saturday featured the team 3x2.7-kilometre relay races.
Alysson Marshall, Bryana van Leeuwen and Camille Hamm brought home the gold medal for Lakehead in the women's field, finishing 1:51.0 ahead of rival Carleton.
The men's team was able to capture both the gold and bronze medals in the men's team relay, as Gavin Shields, Geoff Way-Nee and Chris Hamilton reached the top of the podium with a time of 24:57.0. Their teammates, Colin Pendziwol, Lucas Shewen and Sean Carter claimed third place in a time of 26:10.0
Heading into the final day of races on Sunday, the 10k/15k mass start, Lakehead's claim on the men's OUA title seems to be within reach, while the women's team will need a very strong showing to retain their OUA crown.
