Rogers Finishes Third in Cycling Competition

Thurlow Rogers of Van Nuys placed third Sunday in the 45-mile pro-am event of the Holy Cross Grand Prix Criterium at the Warner Center in Woodland Hills.

Rogers, a former Olympian and a member of the Miller Lite Cycling Team, was part of an eight-man breakaway in the 100-rider field. Rogers finished second in the event last year.

Saturday, Rogers won the master’s division of the Corona Circuit Race and was second in the pro-am event. Teammate John Wordin of West Hills was eighth in the master’s race.

The two are scheduled to race in the San Luis Obispo Criterium on Sunday.
