Ski Team at the Fifth Mount Institute Ski League (MISL) race

On Wednesday 2/8, the competitive ski teams traveled to Berkshire East for the fifth of six Mount Institute Ski League (MISL) races. Eaglebrook competed with a Varsity team and two Junior Varsity teams. This week the Varsity team competed in a Giant Slalom event. The athletes had their strongest performance of the season, narrowly missing second place behind NMH and Deerfield Academy. Cody V. '23 led the effort with a fourth-place finish, his strongest performance of the year. He was closely followed by Hugh P. '23 and Changwook C. '23 who finished ninth and tenth respectively. The rest of the team enjoyed finishing in the top twenty-five. The Junior Varsity teams competed in Slalom this week and reaped the benefits of hard training, securing first and second place out of seven teams. The Junior Varsity teams were led by impressive performances by Aaron V. '23 who won the race, Jerry R. '24, Marcus L. '23, and Diego H. 23 finishing in the top five. Next Wednesday, Eaglebrook will co-host the New England Prep School Class A Championships with Pingree school, and the team's top five Varsity racers will represent the school in that event. The MISL race series concludes with a final race at Berkshire East on 2/22.
