Sean O'Brien led the Harwood boys in the giant slalom in 40th place. While his time was a little over three seconds out of first place, the times were very close as the course length was fairly short. Chad Koenig, 42nd, JP Guardino, 44th, Tanner Skilton, 46th, Aaron Chesler, 52nd, and Jamie Dillon, 56th, all skied good, solid, smooth runs in a field of 85 racers.
