STOWE, VT (Trapp Family Lodge) – In some of the best and tightest competition in many years at the TD Banknorth Eastern High School Championships, 212 of many of New England and New York’s top high school skiers battled it out over Trapp Family Lodge’s perfectly groomed and extremely challenging trails.

The venue allowed incredible viewing of much of the race action with down-to-the-wire action. The girls scrambled with a classical leg, tagging to boys racing another classic leg, then tagging to girls freestyle with boys anchoring a last freestyle leg. The skiers blasted through the first 3k classic leg with Olga Golovkina (MA) in the lead over Maine, NH, and VT.

The boys flew through the first lap with Corey Hill (NH) turning the fastest leg and covering an 18 second gap to take the lead for New Hampshire. They held onto the lead going into the third leg, but final leg skier Nick Fogel from Massachusetts flew by to regain the lead by 12 seconds. The relay finished with Massachusetts wining followed by New Hampshire and Maine. Maine had four teams in the top-10, followed by New Hampshire with three, Vermont with two and Massachusetts with one.
