Jack Gilbert, senior, Spruce Mountain
Kearing’s self-assurance earned him victories in giant slalom and slalom with winning times of 1:33.70 and 1:24.34, respectively, and the honor of being named the Sun Journal’s Boys Alpine Skier of the Year.
“Awesome,” the Mt. Blue senior said. “I was just happy I could put two runs together. I was happy to have a season. I was happy to have a conference championship.
“I don’t want to sound cocky, but I knew we have been training all year. I knew we had a strong team and I knew I got some solid coaching. I was confident I was going to have a good day. I wasn’t sure it was going to be that good, but I was very happy how it turned out.”
