UAA adds three skiers

Service High's John Glenn is among a trio of nordic skiers who have agreed to ski for UAA next season, coach Sparky Anderson announced Thursday. Marine Dusser of France and Patricia Sprecher of Switzerland will join the women's team. Glenn is coming off a successful senior season, helping the Cougars win a state title. He was second individually in the classic race and third in the freestyle at the state meet, good enough to take second in the Skimeister standings.

Dusser is a member of the French national biathlon team and has won medals in the Junior Olympic Games, both as an individual and in relays.

Sprecher earned 12 medals throughout her career at the Swiss Junior Championships, posting three victories at the Junior Swiss Cup and twice participating in the Junior World Championships.
