Four skiers from the Bull Mountain Racers of the Williams Lake Cross Country Ski Club competed at the Teck BC Midget Championships in West Kelowna late last month.

Skiers had a great weekend, coaches said, with several personal bests for the season achieved.

The BC championships was a two-day event with three races and approximately 218 competitors.

Grace Turner, born in 2004, raced to a seventh-place result in the 2.0 classic interval start and a fifth-place finish in the 300-metre sprint.

Anika Wallin, born in 2006, raced to a third-place finish in the 2.0 classic interval start and a fourth-place result in the 300-metre sprint.

Jessabelle Atkinson-Trelenbert, in the 2007 class, took seventh in the 2.0 classic interval start and a 13th-place time in the 300-metre sprint.

Livia Seabourne, also in the 2007 division, was 33rd in the 2.0 classic interval start and 29th in the 300-metre sprint.

The girls, meanwhile, raced in the 1.5-kilometre relay and were 12th out of the 25 official teams.
