Park City finished 20 points shy of Union, which won the meet with 167 points. Emery High School was third with 66 and Duchesne had 61 points. The Miners were disappointed disap-pointed with their 147 points and second-place finish, according ac-cording to Coach Kari Culp. : "A lot of people fell off the beam and uneven bars several times, and that costs a routine half of a point each slip," said Kulp. "We just didn't have a good day." The second place finish was also especially hard for the team because, going into ..ne meet, the Miners felt they could beat Union, since they lost by only four points the previous meet against Union. "'We might have been too confid-r-nt that we were going to beat Union," Kulp said. Howe er, the Miners couldn't manage a single first, scoring as high as second sec-ond place in only one event. Anita Miles earned a second place for her compulsory vault. Michelle Harding picked up a second in the same event. In the uneven bars Cindy Thaller, Suzy Miles, and Michelle Harding finished fourth, fifth, and sixth respectively. Anita Miles placed third in floor exercise, Wendy Blackborn fourth and Cindy Thaller sixth. In the optional category, Park C;ty did slightly better. Michelle McReynolds received a 7.35 for s - floor exercise routine, Pa rit; -highest score for th net:, placing third. McRt; .;;.'; also earned a third her beam routine. Cindy 1 ;,aller , placed fourth -in the beam. Suzy Clark had .' third for the r '"':id Ci.su Boeck a sixth. Clark also placed sixth in the vault. According Ac-cording to Culp, the scores in the meet were unusually low, with nothing above an S handed out. Coach Culp defended the disappointing showing by saying that, with a season as short as this, one bad meet looks worse than it really is. "Right now we are just concentrating on state. We'd like to finish first or second. Considering that Union and Leh; are both 2A (larger sch- ;s), it would still be an ac plshmw.t if we beat out , hi lor second." Be i ore the state meet on April 16, the Miners were scheduled to face Emery, Duchesne, Richfield, and Gunnison on March 23. On April 7 Park City will tackle Duchesne and Union again. Why wait for summer? by Nan Chalat Has Doug Vilven gone off his tee? We are all looking forward to spring but perhaps Vilven is jumping the gun just a little. Could Park City's golf pro be suffering suf-fering from terminal cabin fever or is Nordic golf his idea of a joke? It is all part of this Saturday's Satur-day's Winterfest celebration at White Pine Touring Center Cen-ter on the Park City Municipal Golf Course. The activities will begin at 10 a.m. with a five-kilometer relay race on White Pine's groomed cross-country track. Skiers of all ages and abilities are welcome. A special handicap scoring system will be employed to iron out some of the nature! inequities caused by age or gender. The race is the last of this season's relay series Park City skiers score well in nordic marathon David Hanscom of Park City spent most of this season training for the Dan-non Dan-non Yellowstone Rendezvous, Rendez-vous, a nordic marathon race at West Yellowstone. His goal to complete the 50-kilometer 50-kilometer course in less than three hours. The race was held March 12 and Hanscom finished first in his age group (40-44 (40-44 years) comfortably beating his three-hour goal by eight minutes. "I was happy with the results," he said. "I kept waiting to hit the wall but never did. I paced myself slowly. Perhaps I could have run it faster." According to Hanscom, the 25k loop was hard and fast with "lots of skating and incredibly fast downhills." The downhills proved to be the downfall of Drew Barney, Bar-ney, another local competitor. com-petitor. He took more than one fall, but still placed fifth in his age group (30-35 years ) with a time of 2 : 42. A third Park City local also did well. Rich Groth placed fifth in the 35-40 year class with a time of 3 : 08. The Dannon Yellowstone Rendezvous is part of the Great American Ski Chase, a series of marathons which concludes at the California Vasa on March 20. University Univer-sity of Utah racer Bernt Lund will be competing there against Howie Bean of New Hampshire for the H-eraU first place title.

If you can do it, dinner is on Kym, Jim and Steve. The relay tears will re in three categoric- based on the average age of the team members. Prizes will be avonied fo the top three in eauh category. The ntry k-e is Si pt i-1 jDs At 1 pm., corne snow or siett or hail, Vilven is getting get-ting out his goii clubs. And he will bp offering any one club out of his bag to anyone who wants to join him for a leisurely five-hole round of Nordic Golf. Vilven admits that, considering con-sidering Park City's recent bout of snow storms, a golf ball might be a little tough to locate on the course. So he has volunteered to provide tennis balls for this season opener. Come to think of it, the holes might be hard to find too so he is bringing along five 55-gallon drums. Participants will be required to keep their skis on at all times. "1 have no idea how they're going to stand to shoot," said Vilven. The challenge will be to get enough power behind the swing without sending the skis across the "green." Nordic pro Steve Erickson thought it might be a good idea to mount a tee on the tip of his ski, but Vilven nixed the plan. "We'll be writing up the rules this week," he said. There will be prizes for those sporting enough to give it their best shot and if it is successful, Vilven hopes to run a similar event next fall. "I think it would be fun to play a few holes up to the angle station at the Resort, don't you?" Like grass skiing and snow sailing, Nordic Golf may be the start of something big in Park City. ..J...ifi lift iniiUm i A i.l,n' im-M " ' 'infi iifrinHiHirf i |
