Columbia Triathletes Win Another National Title

The Columbia Multisport Club defended its title at USA Triathlon club
championships over the weekend in Innsbrook. This marks the fourth time
in five years that CMC has won the national title.

This time, the club brought nearly 200 competitors to the event.

"Honestly, we knew we were going to win just because of the close
proximity of the championships to Columbia," CMC President Mark Livesay
said. "But the location allowed so many members of our club to
participate, and that was really sweet."

Columbia won the title with 520 points, followed by the St. Louis
Tri-Club with 151 points. There were 14 clubs and 800 athletes
participating.

CMC competitors swept first, second and third places in eight different
age group categories during the two-day event. Columbian Ted Zderic
won the overall title."
