Fergus Falls sophomore David Ronnevik skied the Classic 5k on Wednesday at the State Nordic Ski Meet at Giants Ridge near Biwabik, finishing 32nd overall and is currently 1:34.2 behind the leader. Due to frigidly cold weather, the race schedule for Thursday has been revised. The boys pursuit skate race starts at 3:40, instead of 2:00pm.

“David has a goal to break into the top 25 and become an all-stater,” said Head Coach Josh Scharnberg. “Breaking into the top twenty takes experience and a ton of hard off-season work. David is very much a goal orientated, focused and forward-thinking young man and that’s what he is doing at this meet: gaining experience, moving up from where he was at a year ago, and setting his sights on future state meets.”
