Competing for the Loup Loup alpine team at Stevens Pass were, left to right: Graham Sheley, Damon Alumbaugh, coach Bret Alumbaugh, Carter Sheley, Ella Gann, Josef Gann and Peyton Miller.
The Loup Loup alpine skiing team was well-represented at last weekend’s Wild Katz race at Stevens Pass, where more than 200 skiers raced over two days.
Bret Alumbaugh, team coach along with Ingrid Patterson, said racing conditions were perfect for both days.
“The Loup kids really skied well, in particular on Sunday in the giant slalom where all of them placed in the top 10,” Alumbaugh said. “I was very impressed by how our kids skied considering how cold it was and how long they waited for their last run of the day.”
The Loup team’s U14 boys took first, second and third in Sunday’s giant slalom.
