In the J-7 division, Mission Ridge's Owen Platt took first and second, respectively, in two giant slalom races. And in the J-6 girls race on Sunday, Hadley Platt came in second.

Wiggs won the overall title by taking first place in the J-4 classification in Saturday's giant slalom and fourth place in Sunday's giant slalom.

Meanwhile, MRST athletes Haille Johnson (fourth place) and Shae Milne (eighth place) had good showings in Saturday's girls J-4 giant slalom; Calvin Hanson finished eighth in Saturday's boys J-5 race; Sophie Black had ninth and 10th-place finishes in the girls J-5 races; Jake Snitily finished ninth on both days in J-6; Isabella Taylor was ninth in Saturday's J-6 race.
