UPDATE 10/16/2023
CSU had a great weekend at MTB Nats, but a broken chain for Quentin Loxtercamp in the short track likely cost the team the win in the D1 Omnium national championship. Congrats to George Poggemeyer on his DS National Championship and his third place in the DH, Isa Naschold on taking third in both the XC and ST races and Quentin on taking 5th in XC. The team was fifth in the relay and 4th in the D1 Omnium. Full results are below.
