Summer Training Highlight

Hey! I’m Bridget Burns, a 4th year environmental engineering student from Spokane, Washington.

I spent the summer in Houghton doing research on wastewater treatment for the semiconductor industry. Some of my favorite training moments were mountain biking in Copper Harbor, paddling on Lake Superior, and backpacking Isle Royale with my mom. Can’t wait for ski season 🤟

Summer Training Highlight!

Hi! my name is Alex Pundsack alex, and I’m from St. Paul, Minnesota. I’ll be a sophomore at Michigan Tech this year, studying exercise science!

I’ve had a great summer training with the MSC Pro Project, and I’ve had some really cool and fun adventures as well. I traveled to Alaska to visit some friends as well as Ireland for a trip with my sister. I’m very excited to be back in Houghton with all my teammates soon!!

Summer Training Highlight!
Hi! My name is Erica Kazin, and I’m the recently-retired-racer-turned-Team-Manager for the Huskies, majoring in Chemistry! This summer I was living at the University of Minnesota where I worked on cancer biology research. I enjoyed exploring the concrete jungle with some fellow Huskies and started to flex my coaching muscles by cheering for some speedy teammates in rollerski races. I’m stoked to get started with the team this fall!

Summer Training Highlight!

Hi, I'm AJ Westanmo AJ Westanmo; I'm a sophomore this year, and I'm studying software engineering and statistics.

This summer I trained in the TC with Snø Racing's collegiate program. In May my friends and I went on a sick backpacking trip in CO and the badlands. I also visited my boy Markus Bryan Grøthe in Norway with one of my buddies and we did some awesome rollerskiing and mtn runs before kicking butt in a 3k uphill race to the top of a mountain.

I'm so excited for the fall; we're going to have another great team this year!!

Summer Training Highlight!

Hi! My name is Everett Roberson Everett Roberson I’m an incoming freshman studying Aerospace Engineering. I spent my time this summer in Bozeman, MT with Bridger Ski Foundation

My favorite moments from this summer were the long OD runs where we grabbed peaks, long threshold ski sessions, lactate testing on a roller ski treadmill, and enjoying time spent with friends.

I’m currently back home in Casper, WY enjoying family time before I head off to Houghton! I’m super excited for the school year and this winter! Go Huskies!

Graduates advice for future Nordic Huskies:

“Always be thinking about how to keep it fun! It’s hard to find a perfect balance between being motivated to race and train without putting an emphasis on performance outcomes and results - it needs to be an enjoyable and fulfilling experience to be sustainable.”

“Train smart, race hard, slow down and don’t take your time for granted, hit some jumps!”

“Enjoy the Houghton winters and all the great places to ski!”

“Build relationships on and off the team, take advantage of all the student-athletes resources, and explore the Keweenaw area and all it has to offer!”
