Buffs Third At Alaska Anchorage Invitational

ANCHORAGE, Alaska—Sophomore Hedda Baangman took second in the women's classic sprint races and the University of Colorado ski team slipped from first to third in tight team standings here Monday at the Alaska Anchorage Invitational with races taking place at Kincaid Park.

Aside from Baangman's runner-up finish, the Buffs had two top 10 finishes, both in the men's race with freshman Erik Dengerud taking sixth and senior Alvar Alev finishing seventh. Monday's races are the only sprint races of the season on the college circuit.

"Our team is not really built to be a sprinting team," CU Nordic coach Jana Weinberger said.
