The Eaglebrook Ski Team has started off their season with an extraordinary start. The season began with the notorious but brief dry-land training, where the team ran collectively on the track and completed a variety of different workouts. Thanks to our incredible maintenance crew, who have begun pumping snow even before the winter season has started, we have been very fortunate to have a significantly shorter dry-land training period.
The ski team hit the slopes before Winter Break this year—a historical first—and we are incredibly grateful for the chance to train so early in the season. We began with some brushes and then moved on to a new training gate called “Hero Gates.” They are gates that come up to your knees and are soft, making them impactless. They were a pleasure to train on, and we are looking forward to implementing original gates for both Slalom and Giant Slalom.
The Eaglebrook Ski Team also has a unique tradition. Every Wednesday, the whole team travels to Berkshire East Ski Resort for races, creating an exciting atmosphere where everyone competes together. We also race against numerous other schools, including Deerfield Academy, Northfield Mount Hermon, and many more.
Our Eaglebrook ski team is led by Mr. Noah Harrison, Mr. Ryan McClure, and Ms. Erika Looman. Our team members include Oliver Arcoleo ’29, Christian Chandler ’27, Matthias Choi ’28, Maddie Fay ’27, Kijun Hwang ’28, Alex Jie ’28, Nathan Kim ’28, Bea Lakey ’27, Henry Lee ’26, James Lin ’26, Luigi Murphy ’26, Victor Oudin ’26, Caden Park ’27, Andres Seal ’26, Dean Tanoyo ’27, Ülla Williams ’26, Richard Worley II ’29, Thomas Yang ’28, Max Yoon ’27, Ryan Yuan ’28, Frank Zhang ’26, and Kenneth Zheng ’29.
