Savannah Pringle has won the overall girls 2023 U12 Intermountain Division Championship Title at Snowbird Utah.
Pringle was part of the Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation U12 Travel team that traveled to Snowbird ski resort March 17-19. They were there to compete in their final race of the season—the U12 Intermountain Division Championships.
SVSEF had 14 boys and 19 girls qualify to compete in the championship series. Throughout the season, SVSEF U12 athletes compete against athletes from the northern region of the Intermountain Division.
The 2023 IMD Championships brings the northern and southern regions of the Intermountain Division together, making the field of athletes bigger and the competition that much more competitive. In Snowbird, 200 athletes competed in one Giant Slalom (GS), one Slalom (SL), and one Kombi race.
“These athletes did a great job attacking each of the courses, skiing and finishing the season with some of their best skiing, and also having loads of fun at a new venue,” said Adele Savaria, SVSEF Alpine U12 Travel Head Coach. “As coaches, we are so proud of everything these athletes accomplished this season and can’t wait for next season.”
Savannah Pringle brought home the overall girls U12 IMD Championship title. Her strong results in each event earned Pringle the overall win, with a third place in the Giant Slalom, second in the Slalom and second in the Kombi.
Henry Questad also had a great championship series, coming in second in the men’s Slalom and fifth in the Giant Slalom.
