In racing action, SSRA athletes were represented well on the podium. "To win a team championship, it take a team effort. We did it all season and we did it on the finals weekend. It is impossible to be individually perfect all the time. We knew we would be competitive, and we improved every race. What probably defined us most was our ability to support each other by stepping up when we needed to," remarked Chuck Holcomb, SSRA Executive Director/Head Coach.
