Middlesex Nordic Skiing raced in its first Friday Night Lights race series of the season against Andover, Belmont Hill and Rivers Friday night. The format was Olympic Sprint Relays (teams of two). Each competitor skied 1 km and tagged their partner, who in turn skis 1 km and then they repeat two more times until each skier has skied 3 legs and the finish time for the last skier is recorded. The Middlesex Girls' took the top team performance with the team of Angela Huffer and Alex Hood just getting nudged out of the top spot in the last 150 meters for a second place finish followed by a fourth place for Abby Tribush and Avery Green and a fifth place finish for Pipsa Palatsi and Avery Keller.
