March 10, 2021PINKHAM NOTCH The division was different, the format was different, but the Gilford Nordic boys domination did not change.
The duo of Aiden Bondaz and Mitchell Townsend finished in the top three in both legs of the Division II championship to lead the Golden Eagles to the title on Thursday, March 4, at Great Glen Trails in Pinkham Notch.
This year s race was a different format, thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic that forced teams to separate a little more. Each school s racers were on the course at the same time, with each school separated by about 15 minutes. The race started with the classical loop and the racers came into the start/finish area at the end of that run, changed skis and went out on the freestyle loop. T
