Coach: Claire Polfus (First year)

Conference: KVAC; Class: A

Last year’s result: Boys: Second KVAC, third state; Girls: Second KVAC, second state.

Returning athletes: Boys: Seniors — Liam Welch, Thomas Wing; Juniors — Tucker Barber, Nolan Rogers. Girls: Senior — Miriam Cohen; Junior — Julia Ramsey, Sophomore — Meg Charles.

Key losses: Dan Lesko, Leah Hardy

Promising newcomers: Boys: Sophomore — Zeke Robinson; Freshmen — Dom Giampietro, Sam Smith. Girls: Freshman — Chelsea Seabold

Season outlook: Mt. Blue lost very few skiers to graduation last year, so most of the team is back with great attitudes and in shape from fall sports. They have a lot of skiers on the boys’ side and the girls are around the same speed, so first-year coach Polfus is looking to them to work together and push each other.
