Arendz aiming for more hardware

Hartsville native Mark Arendz races Tuesday at the Paralympics

Tuesday is game day again Mark Arendz who goes for a second medal at the Winter Paralympic Games in Pyeongchang, South Korea. The Hartsville native won a silver on Saturday, his third overall Paralympic medal, and shoots for more in Tuesday’s biathlon middle distance event.

It’s also part of a busy week for the 28-year-old.

“My first cross-country will be the sprint on (Wednesday). Then I head into the final weekend with three races in a row: (Friday) the biathlon individual, the middle distance cross-country on (Sunday). Finally if everything is still going well I have the possibility of racing the cross-country relay on (Sunday).”
