HANOVER — The CVC Nordic Ski Championship meet was co-hosted by Fall Mountain High School and Hanover High School on March 2. The Fall Mountain Boys were crowned the 2022 CVC Champions.

The race was held at the Hanover Golf Course. This race was 4.5km (2.7 miles) over two laps. Because it was on the golf course the spectators were able to see most of the course with little walking around. There were 62 high school boys and 44 high school girls.

As for the girls who raced first, the Wildcats Anna Lloyd came 4th and Lily Ware came 18th.

On the boys’ side of things, Fall Mountain’s Gabe Lloyd and David Northcott came 3rd and 4th, Edward Gowdy in 9th, and Ben Tetu in 10th. This gives Fall Mountain 26 points.

Lebanon got 2nd, 6th, 8th, and 11th giving them 27 points as Fall Mountain won by the smallest difference possible.
