Thirty-year old Mike Phillips (Alterra/Specialized) of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, earned the weekend's first stars and stripes jersey with a win in the men's semi-pro cross country race.

Phillips emerged from the woods early in the first lap ahead of the field. Unhampered by the slick mud that covered course after yesterday's deluge, he proceeded to extend the distance for the remaining two and a half laps. Phillips finished nearly a minute and half ahead of second place Weston Shempf (VisitPA.com). Ryan Iddings (Lapierre), who at one point was neck and neck with Schempf, rounded out the podium, finished nearly 10 minutes off the winning time.
