Ultimately, they both qualified for the Eastern Regional Championships at Sugarloaf, Maine, where the photo was taken. From there they both qualified and skied for the US at the J3 Canadian-American race at Mt. Tremblant, Quebec. 

 

Through hard work and determination they reached their goals of becoming better ski racers and better competitors while excelling at their academics.
