Alpine Ski Team

Molly Watkins School News Editor
The beginning of the alpine ski season has been victorious. In the €rst two races, the team has €nished in the top ten. The ski team has 28 skiers, with a core team of 12 skiers. The captain is sophomore Dan Delanis, and key players are junior Andrew Adams, senior Mitchel Ryan, freshmen Cara Hardy, and captain Delanis. On Jan. 20, Andre Adams (11), and Dan Dalanis (10) scored in the top 20 at the Welsh Invitational in Welsch Village. Their sections race will be in February.
Last year, the ski team €nished 8th out of 30 teams. The team expects to €nish the season in the middle of the pack. Since alpine skiing is an individual sport, there is not one school which is Central’s biggest competition, but Stillwater High School’s team consists of 90 skiers.
Mr. Lanier said, “It takes a lot of dedication to be proactive outside and ski and race, and to get up early for the races. I think that not only alpine skiing, but Nordic skiing, are both sports that are too often ignored.
The following are the Central varsity boys’ and girls’ alpine skiers:
