Congratulations to Landon Kinal (Varsity XC Ski) and Stella Zobel (Varsity Gymnastics) for earning DOW (Dutchmen of the Week) honors for the week of January 8.
Landon Kinal (Varsity XC Ski)
Landon finished third overall at the Saratoga/Shen Invitational and helped propel the varsity boys team to a second place finish. He put a lot of work in the offseason to prepare for this winter and that effort is paying big dividends with strong race finishes. He is a co-captain that serves as a mentor to our new skiers and always has a positive attitude.
Stella Zobel (Varsity Gymnastics)
Stella did a great job assisting her team at the Tri-Meet Invitational. Her team placed first on the beam and floor, second on the vault and third on the bars. Great job, Stella. Keep up your hard work this season!
