2012/2013 N.A. Cup – Race 8 – Women’s Bobsled

From Lake Placid, NY

Bree Schaaf has dominated her races in the North American Cup this season, and she continued those ways today, beating Mica McNeill of Great Britain by almost a full second.  McNeill, in her own right, put on a pretty solid showing, taking silver by over a full second, while Katelyn Kelly took bronze by just under a tenth of a second.  Canadian Christine Bushie finished fourth, just ahead of Swiss sliders Edith Burkard and Caroline Spahni.
