Koukal, Babikov Win Spring Series Team Sprint

In an extremely excited race where the top 6 teams were separated by a mere 4 seconds, the team of Martin Koukal and Ivan Babikov came out on top of the Spring Series Team Sprint relay. Team Sweden was second and the US Ski Team's Chris Cook and Andrew Newell lead late in the race, but fell to third place.

The women's race was much more spread out than the men's. Sigrid Aas (Norway) and Dasha Gaiazova (Canada) were out in front from start to finish to win by 6 seconds over the team of Sandra Gredig (SUI) and the US SKi Team's Wendy Wagner. In third place, 21 seconds back were Irene Eder and Camilla Brinchmann.
