In addition, former SSWSC Executive Director Walt Evans (1979-1983) was honored with the U.S. Ski & Snowboard Julius Blegen Award, this is the highest-level award bestowed by U.S. Ski & Snowboard. SSWSC athletes were also recognized. SSWSC alumna Olivia Giaccio was named STIFEL Freestyle Athlete of the Year, and alumnus Erik Belshaw was named the STIFEL Ski Jumping/Nordic Combined Athlete of the Year.

Last week, SSWSC Freeskiers took to Breckenridge Resort for the 2024 IFSA Junior Freeride Championships. The top 8% of athletes from the US, Canada, and South America (for the first time ever) competed for the gold and overall IFSA standings. Ellie Reynolds, Mason Stewart, and Oscar Dalzell earned the invitation to the Championships based on their results throughout the season.

Hotshot male skiers included Winston Witten, Jackson Kormer, Kai Riegler, Theo Givnish, and Anderson Agopian. Ebby Hill, Mathilda Spaustat, and Liza Stone brought the girl power. Summit Lynch was the lone U12 snowboarder but packed plenty of punch.
