Local Alpine racer Jenna Sheldon finished in fifth place in the women’s downhill at U.S. Junior Nationals at Aspen Highlands on Sunday.
Sheldon’s time of 2 minutes and 21.91 seconds earned her the fifth place spot. She recovered from a tough start on her final run down the course to hit the line she and her coaches had talked about in previous days.
“Technically and tactically, my skiing really came together,” Sheldon said.
Sheldon said her goal over the several days of races in Aspen (at both nationals and junior national championships) was to put her best foot forward after a lack of events this season due to COVID-19. In Aspen, Sheldon was able to ski alongside and against some of the country’s best athletes she’s idolized for their World Cup success racing for the stars and stripes, such as Laurenne Ross and Alice McKennis.
