WOODFORD, Vt. / HANCOCK, Mass. — The Dartmouth ski team put forth another strong effort at the Williams Carnival on Saturday, but the Big Green were narrowly edged by Vermont in total points on the weekend as Dartmouth finished with 843 to the Catamounts' 846.5. The Big Green's men's Nordic team won the 15k relay to highlight a snowy Saturday.

In the 15k relay, fifth-year Cameron Wolfe, and sophomores Cooper Camp and Jack Lange, finished with the top time of 40:52.7. Wolfe got the Big Green off to a strong start, finishing the first 5k in 13:29.4, then Camp and Lange did the rest. The Big Green's second men's relay team of junior Asa Chalmers and first-years Aaron Power and Dustin Hay also finished in the top 10, placing ninth (43:13.8).

On the women's side, Dartmouth's team of sophomore Amelia Tucker, along with juniors Nina Seemann and Tatum Witter came in fifth with a time of 47:41.4. The Big Green's other team of junior Emma Reeder, first-year Evie Walton and senior Garvee Tobin was right behind in sixth (48:50.6).

Meanwhile, sophomore Oscar Zimmer took second in the slalom for the men's alpine team, posting a combined time of 1:32.37. It was his second podium finish of the season (along with third in the giant slalom at the Colby Carnival) and five for his career. Senior Max Martin and junior Oliver Morgan also finished in the top 10 in Saturday's slalom, coming in sixth and tied for seventh with total times of 1:32.95 and 1:33.03, respectively.

On the women's side, sophomore Zoe Zimmermann earned a spot on the podium, placing third (1:40.61). It marked her second podium of the season, also coming in third in the slalom at the Harvard Carnival. Zimmermann's second run time of 52.1 on Saturday was fastest among the field. Fifth-year Gwen Wattenmaker followed in ninth overall (1:42.20 total time), with first-year Izzy Washburn in 11th (1:42.93).

On Sunday, the Big Green will be competing in an NCAA Qualifier for the slalom in Hillsdale, N.Y. The whole team will return to action next weekend at the Middlebury Carnival.
