Saratoga Ski Teams Capture Section 2 Titles


SARATOGA SPRINGS — For some, the slopes of Gore Mountain in the Adirondacks are a fearsome sight to behold. But for Saratoga Springs High School skiers, the towering peak was the site of championship victories.
The Blue Streaks boys Alpine ski team won the Section 2 title last week, with three of their competitors finishing in the top 10 of both the slalom and the giant slalom.
Not to be outdone, the girls Nordic ski team also captured a sectional championship, led by a second-place finish by Anna Yarsevich and top-five finishes from Emma Murray and Sophia Murray.
Both boys and girls who qualified will be back at Gore Mountain next Monday for the state championships.
