The Orange Seal Pro Cup XC Report

Some of America’s top cross-country racers came together at Vail Lake in Temecula, California, this past weekend for some top-notch XC racing.

Christopher Blevins beat Riley Amos and Carter Woods and 21 other Elite Men for the top spot in the Pro Men’s Cross-Country Olympic (XCO) race. Blevins also won the Short Track Cross-country (XCC) race .

In the Elite Women’s ranks, Kelsey Urban reigned supreme against Gwendalyn Gibson, Savilia Blunk and the other women racers in their Elite Women’s XCO race. Haley Batten, who won the Olympic silver medal for the U.S. last year, was not in attendance, and neither was Kate Courtney, the 2018 World Champion and 2019 World Cup Champion.
