Hall Takes First victory of 2011 with Dilworth Win


In the women's race Colavita's Lauren Hall avenged her team's disappointing loss at the Spartanburg Regional Classic less than 24 hours before with her first victory of the 2011 season.

In the women's race, Colavita's Lauren Hall also found herself coping with the challenges the Dilworth course put forth.

"Rushlee (Buchanan) won on that course last year so she could tell us a lot about and (those trips) over that long hill...aw, man they added up really fast. I thought my sprint went 500 meters, but it was longer than that. Maybe 800 meters. When I jumped, I thought 'This is such a long shot.' But I jumped, went went went, sat down, and looked back to realize that I had a bit of a gap. Then I went again and just took my natural line to the finish line. It was so close. I had no idea that Laura (Van Gilder) was right there on my tail."

For her part Van Gilder took second place and now holds a 33-point edge on the individual overall standings for her efforts. Nicky Wangsgard (Primal/MapMyRide) took the final step on the podium.

As far as the overall is concerned Colavita/Forno d'Asolo have the team standings all but locked up, although they lost the individual title when sprinter Theresa Cliff-Ryan left the series for the Pan Am Games.
