Stefanie Fleckenstein (BCST/WMSC) 3rd best U21 at Quebec Nor-Am Slalom (Norway 1st, USA 2nd)

FLASH QUOTES:

Stefanie Fleckesntein (BCST/WMSC) – “I am very excited about my result and skiing today, but I know I have a lot left in the tank for the upcoming races. I was able to adapt and fight hard through both runs, in places that I would have given up last year. The conditions out east have been unreal, considering the shortage of snow this season. The race organizers and hills have done an awesome job preparing the race runs for the competitors.This is my first race of the month and I'm very happy with how it has been going. I have managed to pull through and claim some career bests. It's a long season and we still have a lot of races so I'm still looking ahead to what's next!”

Ryan Jazic (Head Coach Women's BC Ski Team) – "It was not an easy race today, the hill here is tough and the snow is very hard. You had to ski with a plan and really fight to the finish. Stef did a very good job with that today, and to be on the podium in a Nor-Am was our goal, so it was a very good day today and should really help with the confidence of the whole team to prove we can ski at this level when it gets tough. Very proud coach today!"
