Sections & ....STATE!

 


We are so proud of all of our skiers who raced at the Section 8 meet yesterday! 

The girls took 6th place out of 12 teams and put 2 girls in the top 20 (Beth Ahlin 16th & Aliza Kresh 17th). Our sprint relay team made the final (Molly Petrowitz & Issy Segler) which was an awesome experience. Congrats to entire girls team on an excellent season. We are proud of you!

The boys won the Section title (the first win in about 12 years & Mattia's first Section win as a head coach). Connor Grant won the Pursuit race & Ethan Yorek came in third. Our sprint relay team (Eddie Sobiech and Elliot Oberton) took second place by just a few seconds. It was a battle with Bemidji to the end! The boys will advance to the State Nordic Ski Meet that takes place February 16 &17th at Giants Ridge in Biwabik. The State roster will include:

End of Season Stuff- 

  • If you are not skiing on the section team, competition is now done. We have talked to you about keeping your checked out ski equipment until the snow is gone so you can continue to ski on your own for fun. We encourage you to do this. 

  • If you are choosing to turn in your equipment now, there will be two opportunities this week to do so. Monday and Thursday after school until 4:00 Manon and Sarah will be in the ski room to check in equipment and uniforms.

  • Uniforms should be washed, folded and placed in the purple uniform bag. If you are keeping equipment, you can still check in your uniforms. 

  • Also, this will be your final opportunity to hand in coupon book money and pick up your sweatshirt. We do have a few books left if you are trying to win some gift cards. We have prizes for the top 4 sellers!


Banquet Info-

We will have an end of season banquet at the Falls Ballroom after the conclusion of the season. We are still finalizing the date and details. Stay tuned for more information!

Sections Info-

The sections team leaves tomorrow morning at 9 AM and race on both Tuesday and Wednesday at Maplelag Resort. We can't wait to see what these athletes accomplish!! GO FLYERS!
