CESANA SAN SICARIO, Italy – Russell Currier of Stockholm finished a personal-best third place Sunday in the junior men’s 10-kilometer sprint at a Europa Cup biathlon competition.
Currier, a 2006 Caribou High graduate who competes for the Maine Winter Sports Center, finished 28.6 seconds behind winner Claudio Mussner of Italy. Currier had three shooting penalties, two in prone and one in standing.
He was 15th in Saturday’s junior men’s 15K individual race. Currier had 10 penalties in four shooting stages and finished 8:27.6 behind winner Alexis Boeuf of France.
A four-time member of the U.S. junior national team, Currier will compete at the world junior championships in Martell, Italy, later this month.
Currier is the third member of the U.S. junior national team in three days to earn a spot on the Europa Cup podium. Wynn Roberts of Brainerd, Minn., was third in the junior men’s 15K individual and Brynden Manbeck of Grand Rapids, Minn., took fifth in the junior women’s 12.5K individual.
