NENSA EHS Championships

Victorious Team VT! Can you pick out the Craftsbury kids?

No rest for the weary! Five Craftsbury skiers participated in what is likely the last race of the year for them:  the NENSA Eastern High School Championships. Racers are selected and grouped into state teams that compete for pride within the region. Craftsbury was represented at the event by

Orli Schwartz
Avery Ellis
Anders Hanson
Jacob Morse
Patrick Lawlor

Racing featured four races over three days:  a 5k skate, a 7.5k classic, a freestyle sprint, and the event was capped with a 4×2.5k mixed relay. Vermont skied to victory, by almost 2000 points over Massachussetts. Congrats! Craftsbury skier results:
