LAS Ski Team Brings Home 8 Medals

 

Last week the LAS ski team left for Pila, Italy to compete in the BISS International Slalom ski meet. Slalom skiing is a type of alpine skiing that requires the athlete to ski between gates—a challenging task that requires quick thinking, skilful carving, and a lot of speed! Despite the challenging nature of this sport, the LAS team returned home on Saturday with a van full of medals.

Congratulations to the following skiers for their outstanding performance:

• Yoshiki T. - Gold medal in U18 boys slalom, bronze medal in senior boys parallel slalom
• Max G. - Silver medal in U18 boys slalom, silver medal in senior boys parallel slalom
• Katie K. - Bronze medal in U14 girls slalom
• Sewon K. - 4th place in U16 girls slalom
• Shayenne J. - 5th place in U16 girls slalom
• Leo F. - Silver medal in U12 boys slalom
• Viola F. - Silver medal in U10 girls
• Chloé M. - Bronze medal in U10 girls

Well done everyone!

For all of our fans out there, if you're in the area please do come by the Berneuse race next Tuesday March 12th in the afternoon to cheer for the LAS ski team!
