Cross-country skiing: Canada releases its selections
On Monday evening, Nordiq Canada unveiled the composition of its federal cross-country ski groups for the coming training year. It was the selection of the A squad that was most eagerly awaited and, unsurprisingly, it includes the country’s top performers.
The men’s team includes Antoine Cyr, Xavier McKeever, Olivier Leveillé, Max Hollmann and Graham Richie, while the women’s team includes Katherine Stewart-Jones, Sonjaa Schmidt, Liliane Gagnon and Alison Mackie .
Young Aramintha Bradford, who came through France a few years ago, has been retained in the development group.
