March 15, 2012 – USSA Nordic Team Manager, Toni Adams, will be leaving her position at the end of the season. In an email to athletes and coaches, Ms. Adams writes, “It has been my privilege to work with the Nordic Team and to witness the incredible athletic potential that has been building over my short, 3- year tenure. While I am leaving USSA, I will still remain one of your biggest fans.”

Ms. Adams notified USSA EVP of Athletics, Luke Bodensteiner, in October, that she intended to resign, but would complete the season out of a sense of loyalty to the Nordic teams and their respective communities. Her last day is Saturday, March 31, the conclusion of the USSA SuperTour Finals and the U.S. Championship 30/50k races. Questions about USSA leadership for Nordic disciplines should be addressed to Mr. Bodensteiner.
