It was the busiest week so far in the 2025 season!

Monday was the Slalom Shootouts, with seven Staples racers competing. BIG CONGRATS to freshman Hannah El-Gamal for finishing 8th and qualifying for TEAM CT. She will compete in the Eastern Championships March 6-9 in New Hampshire. Ben Zwick had the best outcome for the boys, finishing 12th, so in an alternate position for TEAM CT. Below are some photos:

Pasta dinners for both teams were held on Tuesday night. Thank you to the Frankel and Berner families for hosting!

Finally, Race #4 was held on Wednesday night as a crossover event, racing against both Class L (Greenwich, Fairfield, Prep, Ridgefield and Hopkins) and Class S Schools (Amity, New Canaan, Brunswick/Greenwich Academy, Guilford, St. Luke’s, Brookfield, Lakeview and Woodstock). The Girls Teams finished strong with Varsity in 3rd and JV in second. Boys Varsity were met with some tough runs, but showed some grit , finishing 5th while JV continued their consistent performance with a 2nd place finish.
