Ski Race Correction

Written By The Mountain Eagle on 3/20/24 | 3/20/24

In the March 15 article "Local High School Ski Racers Shine at NYSPHSAA Ski Championships at Whiteface Mountain" by Max Oppen, there was an error in the total number of racers. For the Slalom, we reported that Hunter-Tannersville 8th Grader Teagan Mahoney "secured the 25th position out of 38 competitors."

Mahoney was 25th out of 66 competitors.

We also reported that H-T's "William Schneider, a 9th grader, held his own, ranking 24th out of 29."

Schneider was 24th out of 66 competitors.

For the Giant Slalom, we reported that "Teagan Mahoney claimed the 34th spot out of 53 racers... William Schneider secured the 38th position out of 44 participants."

There were a total of 66 competitors in these races as well.

We apologize to all involved.
