It was a great weekend for Alaska’s World Cup athletes. Snowboarder Callan Chythlook-Sifsof took a bronze medal in a team with Lindsey Jacobellis in the snowboard cross in Colorado. In Slovenia, Kikkan Randall finished sixth in the sprint even though she took a fall, and preserved her overall sprint lead in the sport. Holly Brooks will come out of the first period of World Cup competition with a 27th place ranking, which is enough to get her expenses met by organizers into the next period.
