Thanks to Nick Salek's parents for emailing this awesome picture of the Sophomore Star on Saturday en route to his wire-to-wire victory in the Men's Purple Race at the UAlbany Invitational.
Because this was a brand new course at UAlbany, Salek held the course record ... for about an hour or so, until the Championship Race was held.
But that, as Yankee announcer John Sterling would say, is bookkeeping (Nick, being a Phillies' fan, is probably not happy with this Yankee reference!).
The real story is that Nick had a great race and a great breakthrough effort -- to go with our second-fastest time of the day on the course! As a coach, it was thrilling to watch. Here's hoping Salek can parlay that into a great end-of-season run at our upcoming championship meets.
Nicely done.
