February Alpine Newsletter

Hugely successful month!

January went off without a hitch! We had athletes racing all over the West Coast, Canada and Europe. Lots of podiums and big smiles.
We had younger groups skiing Club Series events at Snow King and Grand Targhee.
U10's and U12's were at IMD events at Grand Targhee and Bogus Basin.
U14's were lucky this January with all races home at Snow King and JHMR. We had first year U14's at IMD Speed Camp at Solder Mountain, ID
U16's were at JHMR for SG's and at SnowBird for Tech events. We had U16 athletes at Western Region Training Group Camp in Big Sky
FIS athletes were traveling all over West Coast, Canada and Europe. Athletes from all programs are on a great path for qualifying for Championship events in March. 
Training conditions at Snow King were great and free skiing at JHMR was a blast. 


Three JHSC Alpine program athletes qualified for Junior National Championships

Three JHSC FIS athletes have qualified for US Junior Nationals in Snowbasin Utah. Sophia Tozzi, Oliver Parazette, and Bridger Harrison will represent the club as they compete against the best juniors from across the nation. Sohpia Tozzi was the first pick to represent the Western Region after finishing as the top American at the Western Region FIS Elite Tech series GS in Big Sky Montana. 

The three will head to Snowbasin Utah to train for the championship series on the 20th of February. They will compete in Slalom, GS, and Super G from the 24th-26th.
