UVM finishes second in own Carnival

Five Vermont skiers finished in the top seven of the women’s 10K race, with senior Caitlin Patterson claiming first on the final day of the UVM Carnival. These finishes, along with a third place podium visit by senior Franz Bernstein on the men’s side, were enough to boost UVM from fourth to second in the Carnival — behind only Dartmouth.

Scoring only one goal in the weekend series, Vermont allowed seven, enough to warrant two losses at the hands of the Black Bears. Junior Emily Walsh scored her fourth goal of the season, the only one for the Cats during the series. Despite the losses, Vermont is still in contention for the final playoff spot, trailing New Hampshire by only two points.
