SSWSC U14 Alpine Athletes traveled to Aspen and Vail last week for the Junior Championship qualifiers. It was a total team effort that led to SSWSC qualifying 16 U14 athletes for the Rocky/Central Junior Championships next week in Winter Park, March 5-9, 2024.

Six athletes from the U17 Team Steam headed to Telluride over the weekend to take on the Southwest Classic. Beautiful, jagged peaks and blue skies met the athletes as they bumped down Hermit, pushing their speed and jumps. With two singles competitions and one duals competition on the line, there was much opportunity for securing hardware.
