After five races, who reigns supreme?

Sun, Jan  26, 2025 - By Mike Muha

Ken Dawson, official Michigan Points Keeper (and co-director of this year's North American Vasa) has tabulated the results from the first five Michigan Cup races, through the Cote Dame Marie. Says Ken,

Here are current Michigan Cup standings through Cote Dame (PDF) Please review age class categories carefully, this is easy to forget. Also, the team allocation is from last year's rosters - I will update the results when the final 2025 rosters are turned in.

Thanks,

Things will change quickly after a couple more races, but I'm happy to report I'm in 4th overall! (That will change VERY quickly and I will drop like a rock in the standings. Sigh....)

Team NordicSkiRacer's Rayne Newmister, with two wins, leads the junior men, with Cross Country Ski Headquarters' Shirel Temkin just ahead of Newmister's sister, Avery.

Rebecca Davis (Hanson Hills / Cross Country Ski Headquarters) has a comfortable lead for the senior women, winning two races. Yvon Dufour (Team NordicSkiRacer), with one win and lots of doublepoling, tops the men.

Snows here! Get racing!
